Hi,

Recently I was asked to take over a mailing list, and wanted to test it out
on the 386BSD machine I've been running since last Fall.  Back when ref.tfs.com
was in business someone had ported the program "listserv" to 386BSD, but I
didn't copy it at that time (space not available/no use at time).  Now I
can't find it anywhere (other than the generic distribution).  The "from-ref"
section is lacking this program/port, and the other site that I used to use
for ported software, alpha.gnu.ai.mit.edu, has only a "README" in the 386bsd
directory saying that if files are missing an NFS link is likely down.

If anyone knows where the 386BSD ports, especially "listserv", are being
kept could you please pass the information onto me?  Since ref went down I've
fallen by the wayside as far as porting software, but now I've got some time
to get back into it.  Thanks!

Take care,

-Rich
