There is, as far as I know, two other ftp-mail scripts out there.  One
is just plain ARexx and you need to be a rocket Scientist to figure
out how to configure it - the other (for Thor) just plain don't work
(at least not for me).	So, I decided to write my own!	Here it is.
This one works, and the only configuring you need to do is to add your
System Name (FTP_SYSTEM = 'ptialaska') an ftp EMail user and your
ISP's email network name (e.g. mail.ptialaska.net) and that's it!

The file ThorFTPMail.thor in this distribution is freely distributable
and remains copyright by me.

Anyone using this script, please send me an EMail telling me that they
are using it.  I wanna know if my stuff gets used - kind of a pride
thing.

If you modify this file - make corrections, updates, etc. then please
send me a copy of your updates, corrections, whatever...

As always, I will accept constructive criticism and suggestions on how
I can improve the code.  Negative criticism will be ignored!

COMMERCIAL USAGE
================
   Commercial usage is NOT allowed.  Parts of the code was written
   by another author and I do not have his permission to release
   this script for commercial usage.

DESC
====
   This script will let you select a AmiNet file for ftpmail'n from
   Thor's filebase.  Thor must be running in order for this to work.

   You can also Dir or LS at your ftpmail server.

   You will need to have the ftpmail EMail address in your user database
   if you want this to work.

   Here's the address that I have been using to test this with:
   NAME:    FTP Mail
   ADDRESS: ftpmail@doc.ic.ac.uk
   SUBJECT: FTP Mail

   For getting files via ftpmail I have been using mime, but you
   can choose between mime or uuencode if you want.  Unfortunately
   I don't have any routines for: 'force mime', 'force uuencode',
   'no', 'size', 'mode binary', 'mode ascii', 'compress', 'cd',
   'gzip' etc. etc. etc. - That will have to come as an update.

   You can also edit the text in the Events Editor of Thor to change
   things around.  Of course - then you may just as well not use
   this script!

   Requires:  Thor v2.1+ - Although this script was written with
	      Thor v2.31 - it should work with versions 2.1 and up
	      (not tested though)

   *** NOTE ***
      The routine for selecting a user
      was borrowed from ForwardMsg.thor.
