Early February is "QUITE" a while ago?? :-) The original message hasn't shown up on my mail server yet, so I'm not sure exactly what Kyle wanted to do. The program I have written allows sending of email from the Newton (basically the mail just gets sucked out of the Outbox soup via Steve Weyer's Slurpee and sent off using a SMTP posting program on the Amiga). It also allows the entire contents of the Names soup to be dumped (as this is what I'm most worried about loosing if something happens to my newton). I haven't done anything on the program for a month, but I am planning to add (roughly in the order that I'd do them): sending email to the newton, restore of the backed up Names, backup and restore of Notes and Dates. These should be fairly simple (I just have to make the time).
