 GL> Topic:  Doc's Place & QWK packets  -  Unzipping QWK packets

 GL> I use the Bluewave off-line mail reader.    I can not seem to
 GL> down-load a decent QWK packet.     I use an old unzip program  [PKUNZIP
 GL> version 2.04]  .

 GL> Question:  Do I need to use a newer QWK packet un-zip program?

  That should work for you.   What is happening?  Are you getting any
  error messages?    How about opening a DOS window, navigating to where
  the QWK package lives, and then running PKUNZIP manually to see if it
  works?

  Are you sure that the QWK packet you are downloading is in ZIP format?
  There is an option to set the compression algorithm in the mail
  door on the BBS.   What is it set to in your case?

  Give some more info, and someone will help you figure it out.
