How 'bout a newsreader and mailreader native to OS/2?
FTP software makes a Pctcp interface,but the best overlays
to read news & mail are windows applications; like the
Eudora I'm using now or Mosaic/Netscape. Any equivalents
in OS/2 land? They'd make me move since I agree about the good
WP and spreadsheets available.
