Doesn't bother telling us how he is reading mail, expects us to give an
answer. Did you try the DEL button?

That wasn't the question. Which terminal program you use should make little/no difference in how you delete messages.ã-- ã digital man (rob)ããSynchronet "Real Fact" #66:ãSynchronet was conceived of and mostly developed in southern CaliforniaãNorco, CA WX: 65.1øF, 79.0% humidity, 5 mph ESE wind, 0.00 inches rain/24hrsã---ã þ Synchronet þ Vertrauen þ Home of Synchronet þ [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.netã

Try hitting backspace. Also sometimes Ctrl-Del.ããI'm in NCSA Telnet on a System6 Mac atm and I have to hit command-Del to backspace.ãã---ã þ Synchronet þ TIRED of waiting 2 hours for a taco?
