First, you are stealing a thread by replying to a message and deleting its 
contents.  This confuses thread following email agents.  Start your own 
thread with its own valid subject line in the future.

Second, there will probably be end-of-line convention problems that may 
need addressed before the emulator can deal with a file composed on a 
winderz box.

Here on this linux box, a linefeed (chr$(10)) is the convention, on the 
coco, a carriage return (chr$(13)) is the convention, on a dos (windows) 
box, both are used.  Here, we have dos2unix and unix2dos utils to fix that.  
No clue whats available on windows to address that, I don't own such a 
critter.  On a coco running (nitr)os9, there is a 'tr' utility with rather 
difficult to learn syntax.

Cheers, gene
