Right.  I tried that a few years ago but with squish bases.  It worked good but 
overkill for my personal useage.  I am seriously thinking about using vim for 
everything but for now am sticking to what is working Fido-ally speaking - as 
far as it concerns me personally - and msged has been good to me.

That I know absolutely nothing about other then I have run across quite a few 
messages in Fido created with CrashMail.  Again, it appears to be overkill wrt 
my personal use.  I'll see but at the moment I am leaning towards the XML-RPC 
ideology as that might solve a whole mess of "portability" issues at 
Kumalockasun and, hopefully, liberate me so that I can do what I've wanted to 
do all along.  At this point in time that seems to be the best idea all around 
and hence my interest in using Perl as the basis of the XML-RPC server on the 
Fido "hub" machine which theoretically speaking should liberate everyone 
concerned in such a critter existing here, even beyond Fido if we do this 
"right", whatever that really means.

Life is good,
Maurice
