      * Originally in ASIAN_LINK       * Crossposted in NET_DEV       Hi C.G.,              On 2017-01-26 10:34:08, you wrote to All:               CGL> This seems to be the place for inquiring minds to ask questions. This        CGL> may be off topic for this echo, but I've been told actually anything        CGL> goes here.              This is more a kind of general chit chat area afaik. So I crossposted to the       NET_DEV area.               CGL> I'm helping a programmer friend of mine fine tune a mail tosser.

This will be       the first line in the message body, starting with "AREA:" followed by the area       name.              Bye, Wilfred.              --- FMail-W32 1.73.14.71-B20170123        * Origin: FMail development HQ (2:280/464)    |
