GothaMail Version 0.4 Information File
--------------------------------------
This file contains information on this release of GothaMail. GothaMail
is a Microsoft Windows 3.1 application that will read and send mail via
KA9Q NOS (or some of its derivatives). It is designed to operate with
NOS running in a DOS window. It also expects Windows to be running in
enhanced mode (thus requiring at least a 386SX processor).
GothaMail was developed by Dean S. Anderson (KA0MCM) of Gotha Software
Systems. It was written using Borland C++ 3.1 for Windows and OWL.
GothaMail is free for anyone to use or copy as long as no fee is charged
(except for media, not to exceed $10). Currently, source code is not
available (this may change in the future).

Installation
------------
1) Copy gmail.exe to a directory on your hard disk.
2) Create a program manager entry pointing to the location you copied it to.
3) Execute it.
4) Select each entry in the 'Options' menu in turn, filling in each dialog
box.
5) You are ready to go!
Changes in Version 0.4
----------------------
This is the first non-beta release. All previous versions have been beta
test only. All functions should operate properly, with the exception of
the help facility. Help was not implemented due to delays in getting this
version distributed. The following is a list of added functionality that
may not be obvious to users of the previous version.
- It is now possible to select multiple messages in the main window
and perform operations on the group of messages selected (eg. Delete,
Move, Copy, etc.).
- The 'Messages'|'Reply To' menu selection will automatically build the
headers and subject lines. This means you do not get the send headers
dialog box. If you wish to edit the headers (eg. add more To: entries),
select the 'Edit'|'Headers...' menu option in the send window.
- You can now move or copy messages to another mail file by using the
'Messages'|'Move...' and 'Copy...' menu options.
Previous Versions
-----------------
Versions prior to 0.4 are test and beta versions with various functions
missing. If you have a version prior to 0.4, don't use it, update it.
