Why did you send me this message about 5 times, in various
stages of construction?

 FM> I sent a message to Areafix with 2 requests in it; %LIST and %QUERY. I
 FM> was expecting to get back the list of all messages areas in two forms -
 FM> as a file and as a message. The file came back today, with 749 areas
 FM> listed.

Yep, and the file was attached to a message, the blank one.  The
subject of the blank message was the file name.  That's how file
attaches work.

 FM> Squalid sent me one blank message, and one with just 150 areas listed.
 FM> Also, somehow a PVT Netmail message has appeared in my outbox addressed
 FM> to QMAIL, subject CONFIG containing just one line REQUEST 1 17. Oh, and
 FM> it doesn't have a To: :-) I've deleted it.

Eh?  Don't ask me how to run a brain-dead OLR.  Like I say,
POINT.* and MINP_DOS.* are available for FREQ from here.
Plenty of help on how to install and use them too.  PPOINT
is here too.  I'd suggest trying MINP_DOS.*, as if you are
happy with that, it's all freeware stuff.  BFN.  Paul.
