Having seen these anounced in allfix-file etc, most of them look old eg,
rehatched files going back years!

Please ask the sender not to do this.

Another two points:
I am noticing a lot of files coming through without the tag to delete old
version of the same program/package, please ask all to start reusing this
feature as it keeps the volume of the file base under some level of control.

File Descriptions: Do not need the name of the file nor tons of junk 
characters
eg, pretty ? boxes etc. While these may work on some BBS systems they screw up
on others including mine and as my bbs does not have a file description editor
there is little I can do about it.

Thanks for reading,

Vince
