As I said, many of my problems with Netscape went away when I stopped
using it for mail.

Same software that I'm running then. How often do you exit Linux? If
you're using the "other side" of a dual boot system, it could be that
you're refreshing your Linux memory space often enough to avoid the
problem. I typically need to drop out of Linux once a week....and I'm
working on that :-)

The wonder of writing software is that there is an infinite number of
hardware/software combinations and just as many permutations of use. One
of the things I like best about this conference is that you get to see
what problems other people have.

problem.
I'd have to say that my experiences are similar, at least on my
machine. I've seen some interesting installation problems while helping
others though. The Netscape thing is all the more annoying because it's
such an anomoly.
Switching subjects:
Since you confessed to being a Pine user, do you use filters? I've
filtered this conference (and a couple others) using simple "look at
Inbox", look at subject for x, and move the msg to a folder. I get dups
of every msg when I do this with Pine. Any ideas?
