The primary method is nntp, which isn't always available (I use PPP) and when it is, it isn't exactly fast over the 16800 link. But AFAIK I always have to use it when I want to read mail, as I use nnml as the secondary select method. This might be a RTFM, but I haven't found the solution. -- // Juri Pakaste // jurip@icon.fi
