As Eric pointed out, Windows must be able to actually free up that
much memory before it will even _try_ to run Telemate. The
insufficient memory error probably stems from this.

I've been using 2.11 under Windows 3.0 in enhanced mode. In general it
has worked very well, however I have had occasional hang-ups that
haven't occurred with other DOS apps under Windows. I have also
experience some mess-ups with the ANSI emulation and a recent version
of Searchlight BBS's message editor.

Once I went Alt-H and the "Hanging Up..." dialogue box appeared,
where-upon Telemate (and Windows) did!
