I also frequently laeve work in progress and no problem at all.
You can modyfy, add anything (not just .txt like in M$ Outlook).
Arachne is great and very user friendly - just "save to outbox [F2] and
go on after sorting out some things - you can even leave Arachne [Alt X]
make calculations with another program and return to the outbox - and
nothing is lost!
Over a 1000 e-mails are handeled with Arachne 1.61 - non missing - and
hardly any problems with large attachments (receiving).
Sending large attachments sometimes gave a problem.
The main problem is the 'service' provider... large e-mails (pictures)
sometimes block the incomming mail. This is very anoying but Outlook and
Netscape also are suffering.
With Arachne you can still send mails even if the incomming mail is
blocked... because it is up to the user to collect or to send mail with
Arachne. Bastiaan
