Ah. No, that wasn't really a PKZip nor a MultiMail problem, per se. What it
turned out to be, eventually, was this -- I quote him:

  A while ago, I did some sort of modification to XP's settings to that the
  CMD prompt would open in C:\ rather than the My Document folder, which I
  think is the default.

This modification, which he said was based on a magazine tip, didn't just
change the default directory (you can do that much from a shortcut); it
forced the C:\ directory _every_ time cmd.exe was launched. It even changed
it out from under MultiMail when mm called the archiver with the system()
command. (The DOS version of MultiMail was not affected, because the forced
directory change only worked in cmd.exe, not command.com.)

Unfortunately, he couldn't remember how the change was done, and couldn't
figure out how to undo it. He said he was going to reinstall Windows to get
rid of it; that's the last I heard on the subject.

I doubt this has anything to do with James Bradley's problem -- from what
I've seen, he was just leaving off the "pk" in his command lines.
