Well here's the plan: The program has a config file with sensible defaults. The first time it's run it asks for your name, email address, POP3 and SMTP servers. It asks if you want to set up a .sig file. After that, and immediately for all subsequent executions, it goes to the folder display. This gives you access to your inbox, outbox, and archived mail in month-by-month folders. Archived mail is compressed. It will as far as possible use pine keypresses to do thing, providing a useful subset of functionality. It will do everything plain text. If it receives email in HTML format, it will strip out or obey the tags the best it can. If there's a MIME or UUE attachment it will understand it, and you can save that attachment as a file. I'm looking at ways to reliably transfer header info. > ... and I guess its an American power supply that you need ? Yes. I will be doing an ATX -> QL adaptor at some point, but it's a case opening job, so many won't like it. However, ATM I have a QL I can't use, though I understand a PSU is available for me - I just have to contact someone and arrange it. Dave ql.spodmail.com
