Thank you.  For the longest time, FTP links like that wouldn't
work from you system.  Now they do.

The one on TRMB (also Synchro) doesn't load.

Thanks for that.  Then the possibly for net-owners or othernet
moderators to employ the Elist system could be usable.

An ECHOFIND system (akin to FILEFIND) would be a nice
improvement to the FTN messaging experience.

Maybe the ELIST system itself could incorporate a query
mechanism that responds via netmail.
