OK thanks Dierk, I have version TB 1.52
When it first starts up from the installation icon, it asks this
1 Is it a workstation with TCP/IP? --- This is what I think I need.
2 TCP/IP or Dial out Server? ---- I just have an ISP 30 km away for
my pop3 Outlook Express email. My Netscape mail is an IMAP Server.
3 Non TCP/IP workstation ---- That is not what I need I think.
Next comes this question: Confirm Files:
Files with extensions of _____ are not associated with the BAT. Do you
wish to associate those files with the BAT? YES or NO?
The file ext. are .VCF
.MSG
.EML
Do I need those file ext.'s? I do not know. Are they important?
Also is #1 or #2 better to set up with? My computer is just a home PC
AMD chip 750 meg. 256 meg Ram It is not a server for most programs,
just a few, but email is not one of them.
Now other folks wrote and said to use Web2pop the site is
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I believe. What is your idea on all of this?
You are the only one I have replied back to and thank you for your
help.
Are you in Germany? I get that feeling. My Mom is from Germany
Bye and thanks again! Randall E. Nevins
