    You can get it from the BBS where the file is found.

    In a lot of cases you can request the file from the node where it is found if you are running a mailer.

    Here's the ways you can get any found files here..

    BBS: trmb.ca:2030
    FTP: trmb.ca:21 <- switch to binary mode before downloading zip/binary files.

    File requests are supported from 1:153/757 using EMSI and the ITN protocol on port 2030. The binkp server does not support file requests.
