*****SPAM***** My apology

[Luke Davis]

Can not blind users send and receive windows files over a network now?

There is Samba, NFS, FTP, and many other methods, all of thiwh are highly
standard, and infinitely blind accessible.

How does your software assist in this?  Assume I know nothing at all about
your software, and did not read any of the previous threads on this, which
is at least half true.
