Hi Wilfred!

22 Nov 2016 11:38, from Wilfred van Velzen -> Richard Menedetter:

 RM>>>> If there is a Linux version with JAM Netmail support I will
 RM>>>> take a look at it, too ;)
 WV>>> Why do you need/want that anyway? You're using GoldED!
 RM>> Golded or Husky HPT?
 WV> I mean JAM Netmail support.

Ah ... OK.
I do not want to mix Msgbases.
Jam and Squish are quit advanced in their features (Jam preferred due to
better reply linking).
Why should I use another Msgbase if I can use JAM for Netmail ;)

 RM>> But maybe it is just me.
 RM>> =area works, but is not what I would call very intuitive.
 RM>> (Husky has "%rescan area" for that ... if you are not connected
 RM>> it will connect you, and do a rescan no matter if you were
 RM>> connected before or not)
 WV> I don't know why the original author made it like this, but this is
 WV> how it's working for decades...

Hmmm ... I understand ;)
Still ... a design decision I do not like very much.

On the plus side ... I will remember the "=" now for a long time ;)
Thanx for pointing it out.

CU, Ricsi
