Hi! Richard,

Yes, it is very good.  FMail is working wonderfully.  It has only a few
weak spots specifically with its netmail handling, due to its history being
tied to the FrontDoor mailer, but that's fairly easy to work around.

 RM> I hope that you get a solution for the renumbering ...

I have an idea in mind to get around that, as I'm not happy with the NNTP
server in any case.  I initially tried a JamNNTPd build from a Ubuntu 10.04
LTS installation I have. It produced errors.  I made a new build in this
Xubuntu (X'u) 14.04 LTS and it failed with different results.

So I did a '360' and re-used the build I did for Puppy Linux 4.12 that I
had been using in my VirtualBox (vBox) VM for over five years, and I've
been using that in this X'u for the last 2-3 weeks.  Going by the junk the
server seems to throw into posts occasionally, that seems to not be the
ideal option either.

At this time I'm considering going back to the one NNTP solution that I
really enjoyed for so long, by reactivating my old vBox.  This time as a
point config.  :)

Cheers,
Paul.

... No sense in being pessimistic.  It wouldn't work anyway.
