    I used to use WinFSP with Winsock Trumpet Alpha 18, I think,
under win3.1.  Since then, i have 'upgraded' to WFWG 3.11+TCP/IP
extensions.  Now, I cannot get WinFSP to work. When I tell it to
connect, it gives me an error, saying that the connection is lost,
and exits.

    Any ideas here?  Need more information?  Should I ditch
the TCP/IP extensions and try (somehow) to use Winsock under
wfwg 3.11 (though I understand this is tedious)?

    Thanks for the help.

This sounds like an obvious solution, and it was in fact the first one I
jumped to when I was having the same problem, but it turned out to be wrong.
Personaly, I had the mouse in com1 and the modem (internal) as com4.
Strange, thought I.  Why is this doing this odd thing then?  The answer:
buggy software.  All was well when I got the newest version of Trumpet
Winsock.  This is my suggestion.  Good luck!

If you really want to put them back on the server, here's the outline:

Find your mail-spool area on the Unix, should be something like
/etc/spool/mail
There, each user has a file by the same name as the username. All
new mails are stacked in that file in ASCII-format.
Transfer your local mailbox and append it to that file.

Beware: The headers are usually modified for each specific client, once
they are retrieved from the above file. Send yourself a mail and
open the above file to see what the header looks like.

Also, if you use a unix-prompt mailreader such as mm, smash or mail,
they sometimes create mboxes of their own, stored as files in $home.
If you have mastakenly created one of those, just do
cat mbox>>/etc/spool/mail/user or whatever suitable.

It a hassle, but it works if you're in trouble.

    The previous posters have indicated how to leave mail on the
server.  Unforunately, if one does this, then after receiving mail on the
server, Eudora will continue to fetch the *same messages* every time it
polls.  It will also continue to inform you that there is new mail.  It
would be nice if Eudora would be smart enough not to exhibit this behavior.
This is kind of a show stopper;  one must read mail off the host to stop
this.  If one has to go back to the server every time mail arrives,  then
the program is much less useful.

Subject: mosaic .au files.

I am trying to istall Mosaic. Everything works fine but audio files.
I am trying to use wplany as an external viewer with my speaker. When I click
on the "audio" button mosaic translates file, starts wplany and then wplany
gives me massage : " A device ID has been used is out of range for your system"
I don't have a soundcard but I think wplany works with speaker.

Oleg.
