Hi Geoffrey,  [& Jon]

I'm not [and never will be!] one of those using "Look-out!" or 
"Intermittent Exploder", but I know some on the list have to access them 
at work etc., so no problems here! I just have stuck with Eudora in the 
early days, then Netscape and UltiMail Lite/2 + Web Explorer, then NS 
2.02/4.04/4.61 and eventually either IBM WB or currently [but reverting 
to WB 2.04 due instability] WarpZilla 1.8a5 [not impressed vs. IBM WB].

It's interesting that the OS/2 CLI has the same problem with locating 
e.g. any directory with e.g. an extension of IE, same as in M$ - but 
noteworthy that the WPS in Tree-view shows all of those subdirectories 
and files. [as long as the "include" is set to "less or
equal to" RAHS] 
- even easier in Object Desktop's Navigator.

Checking an UNZIP -l ['el' not digit one]listing of an [INFO]Zipped 
W2KP-NTFS partition it was satisfying to note that *all* files *were* in 
the archive - zipped from eCS.
