 Instead of Arachne downloading email from pop3 server, it should acquire notes 
from a directory on hard drive into Inbox. 
There is a file in arachne\system\gui named offline1.ah 
Arachne should acquire mail using directory specified.  Also in mime.cfg is 
line: 
 
external/pop3   |@echo Insert your mail floppy disk into drive A:\npause\nmove 
f:\\internet\\pop3\\6silver\\*.cnm $m 
 
I modified line to point to local directory. Appears something else is required 
to utilize external protocol.  Perhaps line for pop3   
server in arachne.cfg needs something?
