I don't think I can cross-post to the Nettamer list, since I'm not on that list; can't even set up Nettamer on the new computer. Input forms only allow three hex digits for nonstandard COM port base address, so I couldn't enter d400 but had to enter d40 in hope of correcting it afterward by editing a config file; then I found that config file was in some screwy binary format. I thought two bytes were supposed to take four, not three, hex digits. Then I saw Nettamer was on the same old version more than a year as of my last browsing of http://www.nettamer.net/tamer.html , so I figured Nettamer was just falling into desuetude, that getting an updated version was not to be. Besides, I've heard enough bad things about the Nettamer web browser to persuade me that I could safely forget about Nettamer. No offense intended to any Nettamer user.
I see MailAndNews.com has come back under new management, though I haven't yet browsed the new web site. My test message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] went through successfully, and my old user name and password still worked for POP3, I had a bunch of About newsletters waiting, almost 600 KB. I waited this long to download those messages only because I assumed that account was dead. Maybe other users let their mail pile up too because they think the account is dead? I haven't tested with Arachne, either news or mail interface.
