I definitely do NOT like the new default icon size in v.1.70. How do I
change that to something better ? Clicking the small "Resize" button

Additionally, when clicking the "Clear cache" button, the screen goes
messed up. The top line seems to be a mix

won't get huge, because it is rewritten from scratch with each mail

After being told time after time that the fault was mine, I spent more
than a few hours searching, going step by step through every file
involved.
I paid particular attention to batch programs because Arachne is totally
dependent upon them working flawlessly each time they are called.

It will not work on DOS exactly like Windows programs do not work on
DOS. Not without the Windows API in the background.

If you rename a .SCR to .EXE and run it, it says: "This program requires
Microsoft Windows".

Now we have at least good old broken cookie support, which allows reading
Yahoo mail after re-login (no, I still don't know why ;-).
I am going to sleep, because this release was once again little bit
exhausting. So you don't have to h

Hi Kali,
You got me hangin'! I really don't know.
There was a "cntrl D" that somehow got inserted in the
arachne.cfg file that I discovered & erased since.
Would that cause a hangup somehow? I Bcc: a copy to
myself and had no difficulty.
Did anyone else experience a similar effect?
