Zach,
If you're willing to use some of your 16Mb for a RAMdrive, you can get
Arachne up & running fast as the dickens. :) Using full path statements
you'll be able run in RAMdrive while downloading mail to the FD so you
won't lose it, or you can configure so that mail so that it is saved
to a separate floppy, IIRC.
Arachne would be perfect for your mini-setup. :>
l.d.
