debiaM.org? That should usually be debian.org. Maybe just a typo in
your mail.
As someone else said, the quick solution would be to fetch this with
ftp or wget or some such program, save it anywhere and run `dpkg -i

Try this line:
deb ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sarge main
If you know what you're doing you may wish to put something else there
instead of `sarge'. See http://www.debian.org/releases/.
