Yes; documents can be sent to Ariel workstations via FTP even when Ariel is not actively running on those machines. This is done by sending the document to an intermediate address, the “store” site, where it is placed in a Send queue. When the receiving Ariel workstation (the “forward” site) is running Ariel, the document will be sent on in normal course. Any Ariel workstation may be designated as a store site. If so designated, this Ariel machine acts as a “server” for other Ariel workstations. With Ariel versions 2.x and after, you can also use MIME e-mail instead of FTP store and forward.
