Nancy,

NB>It's not my reader (BlueWave) that has issues with large packets, it's
NB>my computer with it's lack of space... If there's only a meg or so of
NB>space left on the computer, one isn't going to be able to open a zipped
NB>packet that's even half that.... or to be able to keep pointers, etc,
NB>when one goes to get out...

  Bummer. Sometimes, my schedule gets so busy, that I don't access my
QWK Mail daily. I run OLX in a DOS window under Windows 10 32-bit.
Right now the memory shows 233k available...and I have over 300
gigabytes of hard drive space. But, I don't want that many messages in a
packet.

NB>Or pills.... or group therapy sessions....  <G>

  We ought to suggest that to Janis Kracht of the FIDOGazette. <G>

NB>A smart rat would clear out if there were cats around... or terriers...
NB>no need to stick around to see if there is or isn't danger...  A mouse
NB>might stick around to play....

  Well, I haven't seen any evidence of new critters, but I'm still
keeping the unused room doors closed. I wish I could know that they were
gone entirely, and could never get back in.
