To Michael Pierce: I think Public Folder is a great program, but I noticed what I think is a bug: When you attempt to fetch a folder and a folder with the same name already exists, PF bombs. I know I could rename the folder etc., but this should be handled with more grace. _____________________________________________________________________________ Kurtis MacFerrin MACFERRIN@SLSVAX.HARVARD.EDU (Internet) or @HUCHE1 (Bitnet)

It complained "Sorry, can't replace folders", but keep running fine. Maybe you could send me email that describes exactly what you are doing and what kind of system setup you have. Then I might be able to either find the bug or diagnose the problem for you... P.S. It's pEIrce. No big deal, but... Claris Corp. | Michael R.
