Automatically reconstruct ftpmail- or bitftp-retrieved files

    This program is for any user who retrieves ftp files via
    ftpmail or bitftp servers.  It runs quietly in the background
    and watches the user's mail directory.  When the mail-
    retrieved file has arrived in full, rftp puts the pieces
    together in order and stores the tarball in a directory.

    I wrote this several years ago when my only link to the
    Arpanet was a uucp link.  These days, most FreeBSD users
    have a direct link to the net.  For the dozens or  hundreds
    who don't this should be of use.
