   I was of the thought that using a Mail Reader with the Option to Delete   
   Messages from the Email Server and keeping them in the In-Box was the   
   way it worked.   
   I used TB a few years before it BURPED on me.   
      
   Recently I read a TB Web Page that said to move messages from the In-Box to   
   another area.   
   As much as I like to research things I messed up on Not Doing that with TB.

   Something like that happened to me also.   
      
   I learned that I must had accidently clicked the Link on MWB's screen to   
   start the Trial Period for their Premium version.   
      
   I think that Link is at the bottom right of the MWB window.

   I believe I read that comment at AVAST!, but memory fails me if that is   
   where I read about AVG.

   I was reading a web page about the History of Ham Radio and noticed   
   that writer explained Silent Key meant both terms.   
      
   Either the Key had quit being used for a while.   
   Or that the Keys owner had passed away.   
      
   In my mind I believe the page I was reading was written by a Frenchman,   
   not by someone on my side of the great pond.
