Rich Brandwein rhb@hotsand.att.com has collected info on converter/filter
software, see http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/Tools/Filters.html

I will summarise his data for word processors (he has data for other
filters as well, including program language filters, man page, FAQ and
Mail filters).

To get an HTML document via email, e.g.

    http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/Tools/Filters.html

You should email listserv@info.cern.ch with a message which looks like:

    SEND http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/Tools/Filters.html
    STOP

Make sure the first line starts with the SEND command (no leading spaces).
There is a 1000 line limit on any returned file and please don't abuse
this facility.
