    GA>> for MakeNL there is that the post for netmail could be made so it   
    GA>> can and will post to more than 1 type of netmail format where it   
    GA>> now only like to post to Fido OPus style netmail as .msg,   
      
    RC>    That looks like a possibly interesting feature request...   
      
    GA>>  but makenl too can come to   
    GA>> post to Squish and other mail format styles.   
      
    RC>    But that's not the same thing;  those are not netmail or packet

   agreed... even if one used an existing message base support library... and   
   there's no need for makenl to post netmail to anywhere other than the mailer's   
   netmail area on arcmail attach systems... on BSO systems, it could generate   
   the ?LO directly but that would be bypassing the BSO control of the tosser or   
   other BSO mail event management tool...
