Where did you even get that old beta version? You should switch to the latest 
and greatest!

https://sourceforge.net/projects/fmail/files/FMail/2.0/FMailW32-2.0.1.zip/download

But I'm collecting the old archives, so if you have the 1.59b release zip file 
I'm interested! ;)

I would have to look into that...

If the latest version still does that, we can try to debug that.

But I'm using a N: drive which is a samba share on the linux side of my system 
from a virtual XP, which works flawlessly...

Bye, Wilfred.
