This morning after I saw your post I browsed (using Firefox) directly to:
"ftp://ftp.telamon.com/mpe_freeware/"
and had no trouble downloading the A.02.25 version.
I didn't go anywhere near the rest of their site, so I can't say much except
that nobody else really has to go near the rest of it either, if all they need
is the old MPE goodies.
Or, I can email it to anybody who asks.

Subject: Re: [HP3000-L] Using Old Telamon E-mail Idiosyncrasies
Our Telamon client is A.01.80 from 22Jan2001
Website? What website? Telamon is now re-directed to CalAmp. And on
the site, where is the Software? The site now has this "Touchy Feely"
design probably built by a MBA with a Psych minor. Where would I find
the old Telamon HP3000 E-mail client among such headers as:
"Software Products"
"Product Realization"
"Enterprise Solutions"
Under "Software Products" there is nothing to indicate the old HP3000
MailNM client.
I can "guess" that I have to log in in the "Client Support" section or
attempt to spider the site. But we never were a customer of Telamon. I
acquired the product as part of Beechglen. (Which is not a product they
have as a freeware utility but don't support.)
Does this mean I have to "call" Telamon and actually talk to a person?
