    Hi! Wilfred,

    Greetings. Long time... I hope this note finds you in good health.

    I intend to upgrade the OS of the VirtualBox for my FMail/lnx node (~/1384), ooh... this one! Heh, heh. I normally RDP to it from any of the other LAN doovers, so it's a surprise.

    Ahmm, I'm sort of at a crossroad: continue with a hodge-podge FMail/lnx configuration (plan A); or, start afresh with another package (plan B). I just wondered if you might have intentions of getting a workable FConfig/lnx /going/ in the next 12 months? If so, I'll stick with Fmail. Else, plan B (a PITA but I have it figured).

    What do you reckon?

    Cheers,
    Paul.

    I would like that to happen. Would also make my own configuration more pleasant! But I can't promise it will happen in the next 12 months...

    Bye, Wilfred.

    All that time spent policing the nodelist doesn't leave a lot of time to work on software. ;)

    Ah, you are one cheeky cynic young feller. :)

    For us hereabouts it is 1st of Spring! Yeehar! Three years of fixing exceptions is enough. It's time for a change, ermm... a new challenge.

    Cheers,
    Paul.

    Summer will be coming to a close here soon. Hopefully we don't have as long a winter as we did last year. And I get it, with nothing new to test or play with, this hobby gets pretty boring, so I just do other things for a few months and check back in another time.

    Regards,
    Nick
