   Hi Scott...   
      
   There will be a point where I'll need more people to help with the testing,   
   just not quite there yet.  However, I'll keep you in mind.   
      
   I've paused development on ViaMail! for a few of days (no more than a couple   
   of weeks) to write a EList type program which will allow real-time changes to   
   the various NA/NO files.  It will act just like a Mailer with FREQ   
   capabilities using Binkp only without the mail processing side.  A user will   
   compose a specially formatted netmail message (similar to AreaFix) to make   
   changes, request files etc.   
      
   Thanks,   
      
   Joe Martin
