Note: You can use wildcards. But your wildcard must have a period in the filename (file.zip). Filespecs like "file*" are not allowed, but "file*.*" would be ok. Also remember that Internet filenames are case sensitive. Valid examples of wildcards:

c:\upload\*.txt
e:\cdrom\music??.zip

Note: When uploading multiple files, only specify a pathname. Any filename placed here during a wilcard upload will be removed by AutoWinNet95

Get personal mail

Checks your mail server to see if you have anything waiting. AutoWinNet logs:

• Number of messages waiting
• Total size of all those messages
• Time/Date of his last mail check

Cleanup server mailbox

This removes all mail waiting for you on the server.

Why would you need this?

• You just realized you had Keep mail on server checked in Eudora or Microsoft Mail. So all the messages you have received for the past year are still on the server.
• If you got mail-bombed (getting an exessive amount of mail) and a few thousand messages are waiting for download.
• You inhereted somebody else’s mailbox. Your university handed you an Internet account, and the previous student left all his mail online. Do you really want to fetch his 1,500 messages for deleting?
• Eudora or Microsoft Mail just crashed and lost their configuration. After you re-install, the program must download all your mail. You cannot tell it to ‘download only messages after yesterday’. Instead, you will be waiting decades for it to finish.

Stay online for XX minutes

Hang out online and do nothing for a specified amount of time. This was added in case you're dialed up, and launch a program. Normally, when AutoWinNet95 gets done with his agenda, he hangs up. But if you just started your mail program to grab waiting Email, then you probably want to stay online for a couple of minutes to let it finish.

Go offline

Basically, hangs up on your Internet provider (if he dialed in). If you were already dialed in, nothing happens. Run local program

Gravity newsreader

1. Update server counts
2. Get headers
3. Retrieve tagged articles
