Edwin,
Ahhh, yes … the old uucp feed problem. Unfortunately these days, it
is getting hard to find a site that will even give you a mail feed (i.e. no
news, just demand feed for mail traffic in either direction). One
possibility for people who can't find a feed is the uunet organization. I
don't have addresses, etc. handy (postmaster@uunet.com might work, of
course if you don't have access, that isn't very helpful), I could
probably dig up phone numbers and snail mail addresses if someone here
really needs them. Also, in the interest of universal net interconnection,
I can give anybody a mail feed that is willing to call Colorado to get it
… for just mail, it would be fairly inexpensive (of course it depends on
how much mail you send/get). My A500 based node (crises) has a good feed,
just one hop from the center of the net universe (ncar) … I can routinely
get a message sent out in the morning and receive a reply in the afternoon.
Of course, all this is moot if you are just trying to transfer between UNIX
and AmigaDOS on the same machine … just thought I would add my confused
mumblings into the fray 🙂
