Hello Cooker,

How's this: I'm running Linux right now, and using The Bat :)

It seems to work fairly well with the latest version of WINE (The
windows "emulator" that isn't an emulator).  To get it to work I had
to log on as root, and use the -winver nt40 option. I also edited the
wine.conf file so that it knew where my real registry is...

There are a nice selection of graphical glitches, the occasional
access violation (happens when you switch to a Linux app then back to
TB, makes TB hang for about 1 min) plus a "list index out of bounds"
message which pops up occasionally.  But generally it's stable enough
for me to use... WINE even got my windows colour scheme and new mail
sounds :-)

Forte Agent works perfectly under Linux too.  This WINE is getting
tasty...

So in short there is opportunity to use it for those who like to use
this delphi based emailer and donot want to wait for the delphi
porting.
Best regards,

tracer
