So MIME attachments won't process through the digest... just one more
way DOS beta testers are being relegated to second class because our
messages "overload the server."
And this continual request to move to digest format -- when Arachne is
not capable of handling digest mail as individual messages -- is
aggravating to me. Me, I'm only an old lady who can be a PITA ... but
can you imagine that maybe other people, particularly newbies to the
software, also might find digest mode hard to handle in Arachne?
It seems that now we've been testing Arachne for DOS for these many
many months, DOS Arachne users don't count any more? It almost feels
like someone is saying "Thanks a bunch, but GOODBYE!" and slamming the
door in our faces so we couldn't eat the dinner made from the food we
helped to grow. :<
You'd think that it would be easier & MUCH QUICKER for Michael to
simply upgrade, or add on to, his server to cope with the tiny bit
[relatively speaking] of mail involving the DOS version list.
I would move to digest version if Michael would produce an integrated
reader that broke digest messages down to individual messages I could
work with. But I don't have the time or energy to try to come up with
linking something extra external onto Arachne to do that like some
apparently have managed to do.
I wonder if the "developers" mailing list is being requested to go to
digest form, or if their ability to attach files is being removed?
l.d.
P.S. Any of you DOSasauers out there really understand how the htp/dgi
stuff works within Arachne? I can't do anything based upon CGI
and html information because Arachne dgi has other commands/protocols/
whatever that just don't work the same.
I've *almost* got a really nice modification done, but I'm up against a
wall at this stage.
P.P.S. Can anyone explain why we can copy *to* the "To" field in mail
editor, but can't copy *from* that field?
