 SA>         Anyone have simple easy Jam message base

 ml> i'd recommend mark may's oop package... i've used it since it was

 ml> and is great to use... i actually seem to have learned some oop from
 ml> working with it but not enough to create my own message base objects
 ml> (yet)...

        
 ml> i've mark's original stuff available and can also make my "flavor"
 ml> available so you don't have to backtrack and fix things that are
 ml> already fixed or enhanced... 
 ml> ie: one bug skips every other control line
 ml> one "fix" adds seconds to the timestamp on message create
 ml> one mod adds access to additional "settings"

        All i need is to read the jam base and scan for text and
        subjects and then report base on that.  Then I can write
        something that'd take over from there.  I might have
        to check into it...
