(9) Can some techie or other helpful soul explain to us lo-tech "regulars" in *non-geeky* language step-by-step how to access the "mail-spool" (or whatever it's called) to delete all the unwanted new messages, preferably in a "toggle-all" one-step and one-click method à la SquirrelMail? (10) On that mail-spool, will it show the Topic, Sender, Date sent, and Size of the new messages? That information is important. Please don't do that to us! (8) Someone has mentioned that one can screen and delete unwanted messages before downloading only *wanted* mail by using "Pine" or whatever it's called. (7) If the two bosses are cold-hearted and cruel enough to us lo-tech "regulars" by dropping SquirrelMail, it'll be back to deleting every day heaps of junk mail and needing another open-heart surgery. Now, with SquirrelMail, I can download only the few messages I want to read and reply to. (6) Usage History of wonderful text-only SquirrelMail: Years ago, before some techie told me about SquirrelMail, I had to waste many hours deleting all that garbage that had downloaded into my Netscape's Inbox (see #4 above).

"starbird" and other SquirrelMail users do the same - screening the new messages and deleting all the junk before downloading the Good Stuff. With "Toggle All" I can put a checkmark in the boxes left of the messages and delete them all (except the mails I want to download into my Netscape Inbox). (3) When I log in to SquirrelMail ( ), I see all the new messages in the Inbox and Graymail listed. (2) SquirrelMail shows me what's on the mail-spool (is this the right term?), that is, all the new messages waiting to be downloaded. SquirrelMail helps me to delete all the unwanted garbage before it downloads into my Netscape's Inbox. (1) I don't use SquirrelMail to compose or send mails I use Netscape's mail program.

No one is forcing you to give it up." You have been so far the most helpful to answer our questions, for which I thank you. Just continue running it like you always have.
