subject: Re: NetMail for PCBoard

-> Any questions??

-> First, get a mail-/QWK-reader. MultiMail is a FREE and decent QWK reader
-> available for most operating systems. Instead of the built-in editor I would
-> recommend the old Windows "EDIT.COM" or the "The
Semware Editor"
-> (TSE4JR.ZIP), formerly QEdit, though not free and I think awailable also for
-> Windows.
->
-> Then create a directory for the incoming/outgoing mail.
->
-> Then, by issuing the command "qw d" at a PCB command promt
from SYSOP-..,
-> download a QWK packet that will contain messages from the areas you have
-> subscribed to. PCB will ask where to put the downloaded mail packet.
-> You must get your mail-/QWK-reader to pull in the messages from the QWK-
-> packet you have downloaded. That is specified in the setup of the mail
-> program.
->
-> Your reply or originating messages will be packed into a QWK packet to the
-> same directory as the received mail.
->
-> Then, when finished, go to a PCB command prompt from SYSOP-.. and issue the
-> command, "qw u". PCB will ask for the directory of the
packet and will then
-> import it for further distribution to your host.
->
-> Next time you pull in a qwk packet from you host, you will also receive
-> copies of your sent messages.
->
-> Any questions??

No and many thanks.  I do have paid for qedit program and I use that always as
an editor.
