Thank you for the information.                     Hello Robin,              I played with BeeMail for a little while. From what I remember, it was        loaded with many Fidonet-specific features and tools. It just needed        additional support to transfer packets over today's preferred transport:        the internet.              But I decided very early on that I would not be happy using it for the        long term. The GUI design looked too old-fashioned Win9x-like. BeeMail's        graphics did not look very good on my 1400x1050 laptop display. So, I did        not bother to invest much time on it.              I've narrowed down viable point-software to 3 programs. See:               https://kolico.ca/fidonet/echos/points/                     However, your adventure to build the addtional support programs for        BeeMail would be interesting should you decide to pursue it.                      ../|ug              --- OpenXP 5.0.42        * Origin: o,,,,o§ø`ø§o,,,,o§ø`ø§o,,,,o (2:221/1.58)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 154/10 203/0 221/1 6 360 227/114 229/426 1014       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 249/206 317 400 280/464 5003 292/854 310/31 317/3       SEEN-BY: 322/757 342/200 396/45 423/120 712/848 770/1 2452/250       PATH: 221/1 280/464 229/426           |
