David !

That would be good too...

Couple of questions and pardon my ignorance on how the archives software works !

1) I like the monthly division but when a message(s) goes into another month, is
there a way for the "thread"/"subject" to do the same ?

2) I went ahead and blew away a TON of stored Midrange-L e-mail and wouldn't you
know it - I need to search for something that would have been fairly easy to do 
on
my HD <BG>... How long until the search function is available (NOT trying to be
pushy or unappreciative of your archive efforts !!!)

3) Is there a way to let the message "frame" fit without having to scroll (or is
that the screen driver I'm using ?) ?

A note for a temporary search work around if you are using Netscape (and I would
HOPE/expect that IE does the same) is to use Edit/Find in Frame...

Thanks !

Chuck
