-=> Quoting William Mcbrine to James Bradley <=- WM> BTW, if you have a working config with the DOS version, you can just WM> copy that MMAIL.RC over the Windows one. There are no differences. I was thinking of that, but as the two unzip and zip lines were attempted with identical entries, and I checked real close for any typo's... WM> Also, under Windows 98, you may actually be better off with the DOS WM> version anyway. Console app support (what the Win32 version of WM> MultiMail uses) is flaky in Windows 9x; the DOS version is sometimes WM> faster. It's still 32-bit (same size messages, etc.), still supports WM> long filenames (through the magic of DJGPP), and still multitasks WM> pretty well under Win 9x. The only thing you'd gain with the Win32 port WM> is mouse support. Well, the rodent should slow me down. I found the *less* I reach for the thing, the *more* I get done. WM> For use under Windows NT, 2000 or XP, though, I recommend the Win32 WM> port. As I think the author suggested too. I just had to download both in order to find out. For kicks, I will attempt to use the two versions again, but an updated copy. Thanks for the input! ... This is only a hobby... This is only a hobby...
