I have both the stand-alone and the FMPro version, and neither of them
recognize the proper field names from my old Claris Email archives, which
are in the Emailer Archive Solution from 1997? It's been so long since I
downloaded that... But I almost certainly got it from the macemail or
fogcity site. Isn't that Dan's? I've seen his name so often, it's hard to
remember once all the readme's have been tossed :)
What is the full name of Dan's package? Will it import from the above
mentioned emailer archive so I can keep everything together (just broken
down into yearly archives, as I prefer)
