Thanks Jeroen,
   Your ReadMail read Unix mail and/or news on a PC is now available
as /pc/comm/rmail30.zip from our site.  I have taken a closer look,
and I find it excellent.  It is the best specialized utility I have
seen for a long time.  If you want to read email and/or the news on
your PC, take a look at this one!
   Some little initial patience is required to get it working if the
format of your email and/or news folders is not quite along the
standards.
