L.D., I have used Steve Lawson's Goin' Postal email program and it
uses the single file format for mailboxes. It will extract a message
to a separate file and I wrote a batch file to rename these extracted
messages from their default name to a file with the .cnm extension
that Arachne/Pegasus use. The messages work fine with them also. I
have Juno email and you can save email messages as a text file and
these messages (with the .cnm extension) are compatible also with
Arachne/Pegasus.
