Hi Allie,

First off, thanks for replying to my message.  I've been watching this
mailing list for a while, and it looks like one of the friendlier
lists out there.

Thanks for pointing out to me about the free space needed for
compressing, etc.  I do receive some larger attachments (100-300k).  I
have plenty of space on my hard drive so this shouldn't be a problem.

I guess my real concern was that The Bat might slow down when having
to access a large message base.  I imagined clicking on a folder on
the left of the window only to have to wait for several seconds for
The Bat to read the contents in order to display the list of messages
on the right.  But then, maybe I'm not understanding how things work
in The Bat.

Do you think that a message base that has gotten large from
attachments, etc. would slow down The Bat?  I'd be interested in
anyone's thoughts on this.

Thanks again Allie for your response.
