I asked the list about this one and got an answer... the file is stored
somewhere I believe TEXTAREA.TXT??
But this can also be done by the address book.

You cann't CC to multiple persons, but:
make a list of them e.g. list.txt
**** This is a faked list
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]      
****

Type in To or CC: @list.txt

********************* There is an address book!!
Someone at the list did send me one called E-DRESS to be added to
Arachne. I forgot who it was but E_DRESS does a good job.

Indeed this is anoying but I got used to it.

Is there any need for this as you may import external text by using ^R or
adding it by an attachment.
The internal editor is OK but sometimes word wrap is not... than you may
have a space at the end of the line. Press "end" and remove the space.
