    It worked well in PMMail98 as well.  I've got all of my sent mail from
12/97 to present in an archive account.  Close to 20,000 messages in all.
Never had a problem searching those archives.  Since it seems like searching
would be pretty much the same in both OSs, I dunno if there really is a
problem on the OS/2 side.

    Don't look at The Bat!.  Do *not* look at it if you don't want to see how
it is done rather nicely, that is.  Templates (which allow signature changes)
based on account, folder, group and individual settings.  I have specialized
templates for when replying to family, when responding to the list server that
this list runs on (who needs quoted text & signatures when all you need is to
forward the text back to the server?), etc.  :)

    Please, keep the really personal OS snipes off the list.

    Uhm, considering *I* am the one who suggested it to Bob & Ike with a
specific case of how to implement it, that it is in the latest PMMail9x beta
and I don't run OS/2 anymore I would REALLY appreciate you laying off the OS
crap unless you have FACTS to back it up.
