I am glad you have access to your stored email again. I know PC Pine
is meant for online use but you must have figured a way to work
offline. I have it in my download directory and I think I tried it
once, but abandoned it when I could not get it to work offline and
did not think it worth the effort to configure it since I had such a
good email client in Pegasus. IIRC, you need to load a null packet
driver or some such? Anyway, very glad to hear of your success with
Arachne and PC Pine. Good luck and don't be a stranger to the list.
Regards,
Dale Mentzer
