Re: -l option

Dear,
I doubt very much if there will be much support for the DEEP command or
the -l option (I think this was from w3gate?).
Below is a mail I sent on the deep command. Note that the solution below 
will not work if you use the send ot get commands, try our xget command.
You will need a web browser and a MIME capable e-mail program.

Dear Sir,
Thank you for your note of appreciation. I do hope that someday the cost
of accessing the INTERNET would be free (world-wide). It is still my dream
now.
Now for your questions...
>        1- What happened for the traditional command "DEEP"

www4mail attempts at being very untraditional. The main idea to www4mail
is not only to provide access to the web but also to allow you to interact
with the web. You can fill forms and actually perform searches on
Altavista and similar search engines.
A major factor that allows this interact with the web even by e-mail is a
web browser.
The deep command has been replaced by the ability to access a web page,
see all links in the web page (via a web browser) and select as many
links as you like from that page. 

>2- How Can the user receive more than 5 HTMLs or other documents per each E-mail Request

The 5 document limit is only when you have to type in the URL your self.
If you use the web browser to view the www4mail page, you can select as
many links as possible.

>3- When should I send my E-mails in order to protect your center from overload and probable disasters

The server is up and running 24 hours a day (God willing), it has some
safeguards against overloading, I don't expect these safeguards to fail.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE ABOVE WOULD NOT WORK IF YOU USE THE GET or THE SEND
COMMANDS. TRY THE www4mail native XGET command.

Thanks
Clement Onime
