fetch -avrpAFU ftp://loginid:password@my.pics.com/IDX/ActivePhotos/*/*.*

The /*/ directory is 2 positions in size and 
contains 00 through 99 as directory names.
The *.* means all files in this directory.

When I execute this I get logged in but get file 
not found or not available error message.

Is wildcard usage not allowed in ftp?

How would you suggest to accomplish downloading source file 
directory structure and their contents?
