CompuServe Messages

Thomas, the main feature I like is the Parent button on the Messages window. If you turn on the History function of AutoPilot, it will keep, as near as I can tell, a linked list of old messages. If a message is a reply to a previous message and you have "read" it, you can 'auto-magically' call it up by selecting the Parent button. Although this can eat some of your valuable hard disk space, it isn't as bad as I thought at first. I've been using it in this manner since AP came out and so far have only 6 MB of HD consumed, including all of AP's normal files. AutoPilot is ShareWare of a sort. It is one of those try-before-you-buy types. If you like it, go to SWREG and register it to receive the "magic bullet" to convert it to the full version. I can forsee one problem though, since, as I recall, the history function is not available in the unregistered version. I can't see any way around that. But, on a brighter note, if you are not using one of the other CIS navigation/auto-retrieval packages, AutoPilot will pay for itself within the first couple of months of usuage, since it automates almost all aspects of CIS. Just a thought, or two. Brian ->on AutoPilot
