You don't really want to hear this, right? ;-)
I run QEMM, NDOS and DESQview, so it isn't quite a Micro$oft-approved
system... Machine has 4Mb RAM. If I use Ctrl-F to freq from vanilla 16-
bit GoldED, it goes correctly to the netmail area and lets me edit the
headers, etc. The problem comes when it saves the message. It does
actually save it, but immediately afterwards, the message number box at top
right-hand corner of the screen turns into ASCII garbage, and so do any
menus that pop up. They still work, if you can operate them blind.
Finally, when I exit GoldED, QEMM reports an Exception error and crashes
that particular DV window. Sometimes all it needs is to terminate that
window, but from time to time a hard boot is necessary.
This doesn't happen with GoldED 386, but I don't have the RAM to run that.
It doesn't happen with 16-bit Msged, either :-)

Looks go so far :-)) I'm very grateful for all the freeware I use. Are
you still developing Nuntius separately?
Regards,
Robert.
