Thanks for sending me the sh man page Paul (Beard) - unfortunately it was
corrupted, with strange formatting and characters. This looks similar to
when I have tried to pipe a manpage to a file, e.g.

# man sh > ~/sh.txt

Maybe one of the list members could shed light on why this corruption takes
place?


Also, if anyone else was going to send me a man page, please see Dan
Nelson's recent post (reproduced below) - and thanks for being considerate!

I hope all this doesn't result in ftpmail servers getting
stressed....please exercise caution, or we will all lose this amazing
service!!

Regards,

Andrew
