I just did that, (had previously done it with the voyager and/or
netinfo updates) and it works with out any problems, of course you
always make backups before upgrading anyway, don't you? :-)

I have some problems with this too, if Genesis is active but not
online it still tries to send the message rather than queue it.  It
would be better if it checked for on/offline rather than an active
TCP/IP stack, IMHO.

In the New Message window there are three tabs, the last of which is
"PGP & Specials", in there, at the bottom of the screen there is a
checkmark for "Copy Self", uncheck it.  You will now only get a copy
in SPOOL.  This is now pretty much a FAQ, perhaps it would be wise for
this to be off by default in future releases, everyone seems to turn
it off anyway.

1.4.4 is great, Olli's done a great job.

Sorry, I don't use it.

Don't use it either, but I believe this is one of the ones you need to
download a later version of from Aminet (if you can find a working
mirror :-) ).
