Windows no longer runs on top of DOS
David - I CAN get to Dos... I have XP (though it is not true dos I
guess) not Vista or later.
However, I have two computers the old one has true Dos on it and
WIndoze 98... Its kinda a file cabinet
but there are Dos programs on it I need and use.
anyway, Eric F and PAul Sorenson gave me the answers I needed .. how to
toggle and what to use to open the clumsy file.

Ok, so I lost a whole Sh*tload of mail due to some rather forced Netscape
update... but forget that.
I figured out a way to get into the mail I want to see by copying the files
to an external drive, putting the files
on my old computer that has windoze 98 and real DOS with Kedit on it...
I'm able to open the files with Kedit at the dos prompt -within-windows...
what I've forgotten how to do is
toggle out of windows entirely to fill screen dos... which I need to do.
and then get back to windows.
Thats the first question...
The second problem is my 'SENT' file is merely too big to use Kedit ... it
is about 79 mgs.... can't open it
on my new computer either I'd kinda like to split it in pieces but don't
know how or if.
I don't know why Netscape Communicator when I updated didn't keep that old
sent file... though I'm guessing it had
something to do with it being too large, too...
anyone?
Of course, write me off list .... and many thanks
