Nah, I was wrong. I just checked & I still have my original 1.0 book (can't find the floppy just now) and for email it references using Eudora Lite. Newsgroups was available, but the email client was Eudora. I still have my original book, invoices, & upgrade invoices... maybe they'll be work something on eBay someday :-) _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
