CompuServe Messages

Wade: Sounds like you would love NavCIS. Threads are stored in order and can be searched like a directory tree so you can tell who responded to who and trace a conversation back to its roots. You get to set the number of days to keep messages archived, too. The autopilot function is not a documented feature of Wincim but it goes like this (Thanks go Mike Kelly for spelling this out): >> You can use WinCim 1.4 to read your messages off-line (and automate the process). Go to your CSERVE\WINCIM directory and edit the file called WINCIM.INI. In your [GENERAL PREFERENCES] section put this line: Auto-Pilot=On Now when you boot up WinCim you'll see AutoPilot in your Special Menu (at the top). This will allow you to automatically selection the forums you want for downloading, send mail from your outbasket, get mail for you, and then auto log off. It generally takes me about three minutes each day to get all the messages from the forums I'm interested in (and that's a lot!), so you really save money. << FWIW, I used NavCIS's search feature to track down the above message from 9/29/95. I searched for the word 'autopilot' and it tracked down all of the messages with that word in it. I've been using a few of these autonavigators and I am liking this one alot. – Bob Ritger
