Ah!, O.K. , I made a mistake thinking MR/2 was the OS/2 version of MM.
Still learning............   Thanks!.

Thank You for clearing up why I couldn't see MM v0.50 on the Official
MultiMail page.

 HG> You are mixing apples and pears. MM isn't the same as MR but there is a

Yep! I'm guilty of mixing Kenwood gear up with either Clegg or
Central Electronics gear.
I sit corrected. Thanks Again!
