Compuserve is my ISP since years, but I don't use the forums so much anymore,
because I find the Web is now good enough, or even better, at least for all
the commercial forums.
The result is that I have to confess that I don't even remember how NAVCIS
works... specially for handling the mail. A good thing it has is to allow you
to see what mail is there _before_ you reclaim it, so that you can delete any
spam and unexpectedly large or suspicious attached files...
I now prefer to use Netscape Messenger, which gets my mail from Compuserve and
of course also allows off-line reading and writing, with all the standard
functions of 'Reply', 'Reply to all', 'Forward', etc.
Both systems are operational on my machine, but I nearly only use Netscape.
Now with the new list configuration, you can't anymore use all the flexibility
anyway...
