@CLS@ MarkMail Help - Download Packet
-------------------------------
This tells Markmail to extract & download messages based on your
selected conferences. When you choose [D]ownload, Markmail does
several things.
1) Markmail extracts the messages in each conference you have selected.
a) If activated, Markmail extracts a list of new files.
b) If activated, Markmail extracts all new bulletins.
2) Markmail then displays the number of messages, bulletins and files it
has found and gives you three options. These are:
Do you want to Receive this Packet,
[Y]es, [N]o, [G]oodbye When Done :
[Y]es - Continues the download
[N]o - Aborts the download, pointers remain unchanged.
[G] - Continues the download and logs you off when done.
3) Markmail creates and compresses the packet using the compression
method you have chosen, or using the default compression method.
4) Markmail then displays the size of the packet, and the estimated
download time based on your baudrate. Markmail then sends the
file using the protocol you have chosen. If no protocol has
been chosen, Markmail will ask you for the protocol to use for
this transfer.
NOTE: If the estimated time is higher than the amount of time
you have allocated, Markmail aborts the download. If this
happens, you may wish to extract fewer messages, or toggle
bulletins or files to OFF.
