Sarah:

Maybe this is just me, but I am unable to open the "e-mail folder" using the 
wordprocessor.  I was able to unprotect the file, but can't open it now...  any 
ideas or suggestions?

Katie

>Dear Terri,

>I can't address five of the Keymail problems you bring up, but as for making

>Go to the file manager, choose protection, navigate to the Keymail folder on

>Now, open "email folders" in the word processor and search for the word

>Let me know if this works out for you.

>Dear List,

>Although Keymail has improved breatly, there are 6  things which bother me.

>First, email programs like OE and Pine allow you to stay online and send a
>message immediately after writing it.  But as long as you are reading email,
>Keymail won't do this.

>Second, OE and Pine will allow you to view the body of an attachment when
>you open it.  Keymail shows all this return-path and other header stuff and
>you must wade through it before you can read the body of the attachment.
>This is true when you detach and save the attachment to open and read it
>later.

>Third, there is far too much duplication with Keymail.  If I move an email
>to another folder, it's saved in 3 folders.  OE and Pine only save messages
>to one folder.  Since email hogs database space, it seems stupid for Keymail
>to have all this duplication.

>Fourth, both OE and Pine will allow you to press enter on a link in an email
>and IE or Lynx will open automatically and bring up the URL.  Keymail should
>really have this feature, too.  When we press enter on a URL, Keyweb should
>automatically open and bring up the web site.

>I miss the days when Keyterm was a part of Keysoft and I could use Pine
>instead of Keymail.  Although Keymail has greatly improved, I still think
>I'd rather use Pine with my BN than Keymail.

>Fifth, Keymail always shows the subject in computer braille, but if I use my
>PC and WindowEyes, I can read it in grade 2 braille and I can read the
>subject line in grade 2 braille using my old DOS PC, too.  I can understand
>why most of the header is in computer braille, but why can't Keysoft be
>changed so the subject line can be read in grade 2 braille?

>Sixth, Keymail can only do one thing at a time.  Bot OE and Pine allow you
>to read, write and receive/send email without needing to close and open
>tasks through a menu.

>Keymail is good for occasional use, but I will probably use my PC's for
>email.
