Hi Rein,

I haven tried the new features but reading the manual itś looking pretty
good.

I am amazed in fact at the richness of features there is in Pskmail versus
something like Winlink.

I still wonder why there is so much focus on the later in the US and even if
needs were different they could adapt the code to their
requirements..anyway.

Best regards,

John
