   I've looked at the latest release 0.24 source code from 2 years ago, and the   
   pre-release version. They have exactly 1 line with 'intel':   
      
   {$asmmode intel}   
      
   (And I'm not sure what that does exactly.)   
      
   The 0.23f and 0.20e (I haven't looked at all the versions inbetween). They   
   have none.   
      
   Anyway, this is pascal, you can't really compare that with the C sources of   
   FMail!   
      
   The original code of FMail did however contain some assembler code, which of   
   course is intel specific, and DOS specific interrupt calls. They have all been   
   removed in the past 10 years since I took over from Folkert.

   128mb? Do they still make them that small? ;)
