- What address? Anyway, probably not. The mail is only sent once, and if a
- recient is listed two times, either you get an error message, or he/her only
- get it once.

- Please tell us in which situations you run out of memory. You might try not to
- run Thor while you retrieve news, maybe not run ConnectThor either, but use
- sendtcp/gettcp directly instead.
- When you reset the computer, that doesn't mean you have to go offline. If
- you sent AT&D0 to the modem, it should not not lose carrier.

-
- Well, the Amiga is a multitasking computer, why not use it as one? Thor works
- much better on a a4000 then on a a500.
