Michael (xChaos), I beg to differ, you DO NOT NEED TO REVERSE ENGINEER CORE.EXE TO READ THE OBSCENITIES! You can read the file with a viewer such as VIEW v 8.6, or another I have called SEE.EXE...or, if you are industrious, you could even fire up a hex editor just for viewing, such as

Glenn, Your message to me arrived with no To: line, just as expected. If, using NetMail for DOS, I put a line To:[EMAIL PROTECTED] in the .TXT file, the To: address that counts is in the .WRK file, so the message should go there, and the To: line in the .TXT file is just window dressing. Once

For me, the discussion here on the list is a great intro to Linux. I have never seen it nor talked face to face with anyone who has used it. (Welcome to rural Vermont ;-) My questions are two: 1) Are Linux programs easier to use than thier Windows or DOS equivalents? 2) Are system
