I was wondering if MultiMail had released a newer version of their DOS
or Windows program, so I looked and saw the latest version shown on their
page was v. 0.49 .
Since I've been using MM v. 0.50 for DOS or Windows that seemed funny to me
not to see any later version than v. 0.49 in their list.
I looked around some of the pages and saw a message William McBrine wrote
about a newer OS/2 version of MultiMail.
https://sourceforge.net/p/multimail/mailman/multimail-announce/
His message was posted on 2003-05-09 17:44:50 .
Subject: MMail-ann: Fix for OS2 port of MultiMail
I have seen You write about being comfortable with the MM version that
You've been using but I thought to write You about the newer version
in case You may want to investigate it for Yourself.
Now I'm going to go look to see when I D/L'd the 0.50 versions of MM.
Not seeing them on the Official Page has Me wondering.......
