Arachne 1.66 does work with sending email to multiple recipients
and to CC addressees as well.  There is a minor bug some of us have
discovered about the way InSight handles the CC field, but we can
deal with it.  If you have saved a message having a CC addressee to
the outbox, and if you examine it before sending, and then click on
the "MODIFY" button, you will find that the CC addressee has
"disappeared".  Just enter the CC addressee again and there will be
no problem.  I hope Michael will fix this bug.

Most web-based email sites are poorly designed and will not function with
Arachne.

Here are my observations about some web-based email sites that do work
well with Arachne:

http://www.telebot.com  This site works great with Arachne whenever the
                        site is up.  The site is frequently down.  Some
                        ISPs refuse to accept messages sent from Telebot.
                        You might need dozeware to sign up.

http://www.subdimension.com  This site also works well with Arachne, but it
                             has a lot of clutter, images and buttons, etc.
                             Slow loading and accessing of pages and folders.

http://www.valise.com   Works just great with Arachne, and fast too.  Use
                        this site with images off and frames off.  Some
                        mildly useful but unnecessary features found at the
                        site will not work with Arachne.  This site also
                        works great with Bobcat/Lynx if you know how to
                        resort to a few workarounds I've discovered.  This
                        is the only web-based email site I know of that will
                        work with Bobcat/Lynx.

All the best,

Sam Heywood
