Your mail reader is fine (as far as I can tell). Those two groups have been
dead for a long time. I keep hoping that new stuff will show up, but
nothing ever does anymore. The great moderator that the groups had last
became too busy with his job to keep up, then he could not do it any more.
A new person took over, and made many promises, but after a few items in the
sources group he vanished without a trace.
I think that the main problem is that most people have FTP access nowadays.
I don't, however, so I am mourning the loss of this source of good new
binaries. I did find one mail server that had a lot of stuff (MRCserv@Janus.MtRoyal.AB.CA in Canada) but they have dried up in the last six months and I
am again without a current source of new stuff, except for some local
BBS'es.
So I will join in woth you, Marc - HEY OUT THERE! ARE C.S.A.BINARIES and
C.S.A.SOURCES DEAD FOREVER?!?! IS THERE A MODERATOR, AND IF SO, IS HE/SHE
DEAD? NOT ALL OF US CAN FTP! (Though I *may* be able to FTP within another
six months..)
