   VERSION 4 - JULY 12 2021   
   ------------------------   
      
   A very minor release to fix the showing of personal messages on the status   
   screen in the mailer.   
      
   As a reminder... for this setting in Config-Packet/Mail Control:   
      
   When D'Bridge unpacks mail, you can be notified on Netmail and Echomail   
   messages addressed to you. Answer YES if you want an on-screen reminder   
   of personal messages or NO if you do not. When you read these messages with   
   the internal editor, the reminder goes away.   
      
   DBRIDGE.PMT (Personal Mail Total) is a two-line text file. The first line   
   is the number of personal NETmail messages and the second is for Echomail.   
   DBRIDGE.PMW (Personal Mail Waiting) is a text file containing a short   
   description of whats waiting to be read. If you are using BBS software or   
   some other editor to read your messages, be sure to erase both of these   
   files when done otherwise the reminder will remain or not be accurate.   
      
   D'Bridge also has an ability to call an external program when personal   
   messages are received and the AUDIO ALARMS setting in Config-Basic is   
   enabled. It will check for the presence of a batch file called PLAYMAIL.BAT   
   and run it if found. This allows you to play sound-files or run something   
   of your choice the moment you receive a personal message. Some obsessive-   
   compulsive users manipulate PLAYMAIL as a way to send an Internet email or   
   text message containing the list of personal mail waiting.   
      
   For more information on this, please look at the included PLAYMAIL.ZIP file.   
   A sample .WAV file and player is included for Microsoft Windows computers.   
   For "real-DOS", there are many simular freeware programs for Sound Blaster   
   cards, Tandy 1000 or others... even the PC speaker. Whatever you decide to   
   run, you MUST be sure that it does not require any input or the system will   
   halt until you intervene.   
      
   If there are certain names you do NOT wish to be notified when mail   
   arrives addressed to you, create a simple text-file with those names, one   
   per line, in a file called DBRIDGE.IPN (Ignore Personal Names).
