Again, the XT version is no less complex than the 32-bit versions. In fact,
it's slightly moreso, as it includes the limitmem() function, the spawno
code, and a call to setdisk(). Granted, the "DOS" version has a DPMI
client/server attached, which I'm sure is fairly complex, if you want to
count that. :-)

My official position is that, if you're running Windows 95, then you should 
be running the DOS or Win32 port of MultiMail.
