The trouble with these instructions is that they _presume_ the sender
is on the Internet: you tell them to send mail to an Internet
address (actually, to a bitnet address). These people don't have
Internet access, or they wouldn't have to ask about how to do
'ftp'.
If you are on the UUCP network, direct your mail to (assuming you have
access somehow to uunet):
...!uunet!bucc.princeton.edu!bitftp
