E-Mail Thing - README.TXT
------------------------------------

This software is supplied as-is, the documentation is missing
because it hasnt been done yet - besides the program is simple
enough you should be able to figure it out..

------------------------------------
Known Bugs / Limitations
------------------------------------
* Appears to not work under NT 4.0 Beta
  But then again some people say it does..
* Can Crash when Used on Novell File Systems (Under NT).
* When reading messages on Windows 95, the system limit of 32K
  is all you will see in a message, the rest dissapears.
  (Who gets messages this big anyway).
* Occasionaly some messages will lock up EMT - this can in some
  cases be credited to the message being garbled somewhere.
* Some headers like Return-To: , Sender: are ignored, it looked to
  me like these are not really needed now..
* Works better under NT on a NTFS file system (Thats how I use it with
  no problems on NT at work).
* Replying to messages of 150 lines or more may crash..

------------------------------------
Info From Other People
------------------------------------
* Works perfectly with Brian Quinlan's freeware app,
  Spell Check.
* Works with WinGate.

Bug Fixes / Releases / New Features.
------------------------------------
13/06/96 - Inital release to public.
16/06/96 - messages with UUENCODED files will now
           be decoded, you cannot encode in this old format.
           (MIME Base64 is better.)
         - Bug in handling of the Address book fixed (when entering
           some addresses the last address in the book file would
           also have a copy of the message sent to it).
         - Seperation between POP account and E-Mail address.
18/06/96 - Fixed the problem where the POP account name was not being
           saved - I forgot to check to see if it was being done.
22/06/96 - Added the ability to change the IP Port number for the
           POP & SMTP Servers, can be different for each Drop.
         - May have fixed the problem where it crashes on load, and
           on some messages that have no From: field.
         - Sets a default filename for MIME attachments that have none.
30/07/95 - Such a long time, made major changes, making the .exe smaller
           and faster.
         - Fixed problems with many types of messages.
         - Fixed problems people may have had with starting for the first 
           time.
         - Loads and unloads faster due to caching of information.

------------------------------------
Solutions to problems.
------------------------------------
If you are not removing messages from the server, EMT may crash
when loading its list of messages (why???).. if this happenes 
close it, then go into the mail box and delete onserver.dat from
the new directory.
