Cantaloup is virtually unknown here.  Isn't that an OS/2-specific mailer?  
Otherwise, most of the systems with which I connect are FD or Binkley, although 
I DO have a couple of Macintoshes here in Net 393. :-)

I think the shareware version is reasonably-priced, and your mileage may vary 
regarding the sysop version.  However, think about some of us poor bastards who 
paid, oh, maybe about $175 for the sysop version some years ago.  What is it 
today?  Maybe $80? <g>

Features:  What would you like to see?  I'll be happy to take any good 
suggestions back to the FD beta team.  I've got plenty of my own, as I've been 
busy putting up a second FD node on the Internet with Com/IP, with some pretty 
good results.
