   Hi! Matt,

   -This- Win98SE (128Mb RAM, BTW) VirtualBox's server is the busiest by far,   
   with 5-7 regular users doing multiple logins over a 24 hour cycle.  OTOH,   
   Windows 9x-anything was always notorious as a 'server'.   
      
   The other Puppy systems (256Mb RAM) have a single user only.  :)

   Not currently.  I checked back through this echo and back in April 2006, when   
   I transitioning between Squish & JAM areas (in fact a reversal of a previous   
   switch), I used the SMAPI version.  I gave up when I wasn't running any public   
   Squish areas, or even the Msg netmail area.  I didn't like doing it anyway as   
   I couldn't find a way of signalling my tosser whenever any mail was posted.

   Ah-so.   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
