Hi Tommi,

I don't know what Concord is. ;)

There is Goldbase support in the FMail code. Goldbase is the 32 bits version of
the 16 bits Hudson messagebase, so it's limits are much harder to reach. But
that part of the code hasn't been maintained, well since I took over FMail. So
there are probably issues with it.

My intention is it to make FMail use Jam areas for bad and dupe areas. But that
is waiting for my time and motivation to start on it. ;)

Bye, Wilfred.
