   I have been a Blue Wave user since the mid 90's, and still use it   
   today.   
      
   There are two ways of fixing the Y2K problem with the QWK reader and REP   
   packets. A link containing both methods, and a lot of other BW related   
   programs is: http://www.wpusa.dynip.com/files/BLUEWAVE/   
      
   My recommendation for anyone who wants to use BW is the first fix on   
   that page.   
      
   I don't know if BW can run under Linux, but there is an OS/2 version.   
   Since my current computer is a 64 bit computer, I cannot run it in   
   native form -- but choose to run it in a virtual window with Win XP.   
      
   I have heard good words about Multimail.
