I stopped using timEd regularly a few years ago, but I used to just auto-run 
fconf2squish whenever I got new mail, and used the SquishCfg keyword in 
timed.cfg.

Someone else can add HuskyCfg support to timEd if they want.

There is nothing in the timEd changelog about HPT. timEd does not know what HPT 
is.

Keep in mind most of the work on timEd stopped after it was ported to UNIX in 
2003. A couple of minor features were added but the bulk of the code dates back 
to late 1995 when the original author Gerard van Essen stopped working on it. 
Which predates Husky by several years.

Currently JAM support is buggy and most likely completely broken, and it's 
disabled by default in XMSGAPI for that reason. It might work if you use SMAPI 
instead of XMSGAPI, but you might encounter other problems that I've long since 
forgotten about.
