I have in the past heard that people did that.� I haven't.

Who here has?

>>Also, is there any way that Lynx can be used as a mail program?� I see

There is as I understand it no practical way to use Lynx as your mail program
in the sense of collecting mail from a POP3 account and reading and replying
with Lynx.� On the other hand, if you open up an account on a website that
offers you a mailbox on their website, you can deal with the website with Lynx
and send and receive mail that way.� For more information see

I found that reference under "general information" in the lynx FAQ which starts
at 

<http://lynx.isc.org/fom/cache/1.html>http://lynx.isc.org/fom/cache/1.html and
is listed in the H)elp pages of recent Lynx distributions.

>>Is there a text-only program that can be bound to Lynx so that it will

Not that I know.

>>Also - I have used Windows Bridge 2000 - but the company went out of 
>>business - I only had a German copy - so I didn't have the english 
>>configuration files, but is there any screen reader that is free that has 
>>a synthesizer so that I can read screens?

I have yet to hear much good about a free screen reader unless you are on DOS.�
And I'm not advocating that.� Jaws for DOS is free, for example.

The websites and groups listed at Trace will give you more and better
information on this than I could.

Good!  

Your mail came from Opera.� Have you got the RealPlayer running in Opera?
