    I dunno ... when I needed my "upgrade" keys for 2.3x from 2.2x I had to email Mats, but I haven't seen a post or anything from the place since late 1999.

    They helped me out a while back... I talked to the US distributor and he told me to write matts... and he answered me right away...

    Who knows... it's possible. I couldn't find my key info awhile back (had it on
    a few floppies but at the time had misplaced them) so I contacted them... waited and waited... in the meantime I found the floppies with copies of my key
    info and used them... more time went by and they finally sent me my key info...
    I sent them a polite e-mail and thanked them for sending the info, but that I had found my key info 2 1/2 weeks before they sent it... Ah! now that I think about it, at that time I also needed the 2.33ml software too as I had lost my whole setup, and it can't be downloaded anywhere... had that backed up too but it took time to find it.

    Anyway... point is, you can try them, but don't hold your breath, and just when
    you might think of giving up on getting a response, they just might suprise you.

    I miss FD :) Years ago, I also ran FD under OS/2. Well, BBBS is also a netmal attach mailer, so that's something <g> I don't remember if JoHo ever developed a linux version? I seem to think not.

    you are correct... FD is/was only publically available in two flavors, DOS and OS/2... there was a winwhatever flavor being worked on but RL got in the way as
    well as the MFCs and the crap involved to use them... linux wasn't as popular then as it is these days and while there may have been a request or two for a linux version, it was down the list a ways ;)

    Do you think TBBS is worth running ?

    I am curious about it since it used to cost a fortune.
