This happens with me too.  Occasioanally when reading mail from the
FD4000, when the next message is being loaded and you have to wait, I
wait and wait and wait...  This happens only occasionally.

BTW, I am using a native mode partition (only one, #1) and QWKRR is ok.
So FD users don't HAVE to use the 1581SUBpartition aid at all.

FD users will have to resave the defaults file again if they use a
different partition/path setup.  I found this out when I tried using a
3.5meg partition.  It works, but the old default file confuses QWKRR
and just needs a quick change.
