Subject: Re: sending and receiving an .exe file
Now, that is a good one. I've not tried that at all. How difficult would
it be to just have Nettamer call in and get that file? It would seem that
if you see such a file in Pine, and don't delete it wwith Pine, it would be
simple to just have Nettamer call in and get that particcular message after
you've finished with the rest of your email. But, then again, there's
probably something I don't know about this, too. Let me know if I can be of
any further help.--Patrick
