satepsanone.nesdis.noaa.gov is still active.  I was able to access
the PUB dataset from it, and see that it has current GOES-East
(GOES-13) and GOES-West (GOES-11) data.  As far as I know, NOAA does
not make GOES South America (from GOES-12) data available by ADDE.

re:

We (Unidata Program Center/UCAR) maintain ingesters for GOES-East,
GOES-West, and GOES-South and provide open ADDE access to the
data they ingest:

ADDE Dataset  Server
-------------+--------------------------
EAST          goeseast.unidata.ucar.edu
WEST          goeswest.unidata.ucar.edu
SOUTH         goessouth.unidata.ucar.edu

NB: These servers are designed for non-operational (casual) use.  We make
no guarantee of their availability, content, or data accuracy.

After seeing Rick Kohr's note to you, I updated the ADDE descriptions
for the SOUTH datasets on goessouth.unidata.ucar.edu.

Cheers,

Tom
