There were at lest 2 or > 3 that I wanted to comm. with one about the Critcfield line I am working > on, can't remember who. If you sent me an email would you please resend > it. PLEASE!! <Hi Pauline, Maybe you have tried it, but let me make a suggestion. Acouple weeks ago, Netscape went "NUTS". I could log on and dowmload the new msgs, but the computer would lock up as I tried to read them. I went to Internet Explorer, and it worked about a week and then locked up. I reinstalled Windows, then Netscape, ON A DIFFERENT DISK. I found the mail directory on the disk with the earlier Netscape folder, and found the mail folder. I copied the file, INBOX, to the mail folder in my new Netscape mail folder as Inboxold. I was then able to read the old msgs.> Bill Hocutt bhocutt@cliffhanger.com -- ***************************************************** Pauline [Neeley] Phelps Bakersfield CA 93304 ===================================================== Mailing List owner for NEELEY-L@ROOTSWEB.COM Neeley Web Site http://www.genweb.net/~neeley/ Surnames; Neeley, Neely, Nealy,[Nely-Neley Naily] Washita Co.OK has a new coordinator, Washita Co.OK URL http://www.rootsweb.com/~okwashit/ ================================================================ Mail list FOUNTAINE-l@rootsweb.com Carter-Dalbey-Tucker, Critchfields-Kemper,Fountain/Fontaine, http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Ranch/5716/index.html http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/p/h/e/Lilly-Pauline-Phelps-CA/ ***************************************************************
