"A few days ago here, I wrote in detail that the Well allows ftp and
 telnet by its users.  That was true a week or so ago.
 
          *** The Well no longer allows ftp and telnet. ***
                 *** It may again in the future. ***
 
"The reasoning for blocking ftp seems to be a fear of "someone ftp'ing
 in a 15Mb file and using up all of the free disk space", according to
 the support people.  They seem to be sort of overly cautious about
 this."
 
This may be germane ... I apologize for not mentioning it earlier.
