   The probable reason why it never left the queue is that it may have     
   been marked "Crash". Notice I'm being a bit vague with this(see     
   below).

   OK but I need to have a good look at Fido file attaches because it's     
   not a feature I use these days and I don't think any work has been     
   done on the feature since binkP was implemented.   
      
    AA> Just curious, are file attaches popular in the othernets with OpenXP?   
      
   If you mean OpenXP's email client then yes, and this was the major bug     
   in 5.0.37   
      
   However, if you mean FTN "othernets" then I haven't a clue as I'm not     
   on any "othernets" :)   
      
   Regards,
