- Yes. I've accessed anomaly's snarf mailserver from both work and home.
- I don't have Internet access, so it's harder for me to test ftp access.

- It's also possible that one of the intermediate nodes between you and
- anomaly can't or won't allow a transfer of the size you're requesting.

- If enough customers ask SCO (especially SCO Support) for such an archive
- service, I would expect that they'd agree to do so. SCO already provides
- access to their SLS/EFS archives, so ftp access shouldn't be that
- difficult. Setting up a mailserver may be more bother than they're
- willing to put up with, though.
