  [ original poster desires anonimity; I know nothing about this.  ---Werner ]


Starnine ships a QuickMail and SMTP (Internet) Personal MSAMs for Macintosh
systems running PowerTalk. The PMSAMs serve as mail gateways retrieving mail
from other system to your PowerTalk mail box. 

Removing a PMSAM (gateway) from your keychain removes all mail in your
PowerTalk mail box associated with that PMSAM (gateway).

So, if you (or a customer) decide to remove a PMSAM from a PowerTalk
system, be warned your mail may forever go away.

Again, this issue effects only people running System 7 Pro and PowerTalk
with a third party gateway (PMSAM) installed. Removing the gateway (PMSAM)
will delete only mail brought to your mail box by that gateway.
