When I visit http://www.xmission.com/pub/lists/exotica/archive/ there are a lot of files missing compared to ftp://ftp.xmission.com/pub/lists/exotica/archive/ I thought these both pointed to the same filesystem . . . maybe not? Should I be telling people to use the ftp: URL instead of the http: URL? -- ::: Lazlo (lazlo@swcp.com; http://www.swcp.com/lazlo)
