Hi Larry
Well for starters I don't use it for e-mail. I prefer Pine or Kmail for that.
As to what I am doing right, I haven't a clue. I'm running an oldish system
with a Cyric MII 300Mhz processor yet I have had no problems what so ever.
The version of netscape I am using is the one that come with LM7.1.
This is a shame I think as I often hear many complaints on the newsgroup that I
have no experience of. My system installed like a dream and everything (mostly)
works like one. My main problems stem from my ignorence rather than a hardware
problem.
