   In a message on Friday 10-26-16 Ed Vance said to Holger Granholm:   
      
   GA Ed,   
      
    HG> You have several options in TB, but I prefer to copy/move messages that   
    HG> I want to save, out of TB, because I think that 'Archive'd messages are   
    HG> saved on the ISP, and available only as long as you are connected.   
      
   This 'think' of me, was confirmed by Mark, when he told that using the   
   IMAP protocol for getting messages, keeps them on the server.   
      
   Using the POP protocol, brings the messages to your own hard disk.   
      
   I checked my setup in TB and found that it was set to IMAP, and I found   
   no way to change that to POP.   
      
   Oh well, I download everything I want to save anyway, and delete the   
   original as soon as I have replied to it or copied it.   
      
   EV> I used a MS Office version on the 486 Win3.1 pc and I looked at a   
   EV> file I had written using Word using either the MS-DOS 5.0 DOSSHELL   
      
   I have never used MS Office, but I know that the meta date is there, and   
   it disappears when I save the message as *.txt.   
      
    HG> But I still would like to get an anti advertising program.   
      
   EV> Maybe AdAware still offers downloads to their older versions.   
      
   I didn't see anything like that on their page.
