    If there is not another configuration problem, you have simply to go
to menu INTERNET (in Oasis 1.35), entry SETUP, button USER, and enter in
the last line the filename of your mailbox, not necessary the same as your
account or login. In your case enter there "jaubrey" without extension.

    Oasis will then by default open the jaubrey.eml mailbox at startup,
and merge there the jaubrey.txt file created by the last POP3 session (if
you use POP3, because I know nothing about SMTP recieve... BTW someone
knows what the SPOOL/RQUEUE/ directory is for?). And if I remember well
will also use .sig file JAUBREY.SIG, and create it if not existing...

    Last saturday I managed to send my mail by SMTP for the first time,
NOS was *always* 2-bombing before, I dont know why... And some commands
are mystery for me: someone could explain me the parameters for smtp
subcommands? Especially:

smtp batch [on|off]
smtp delay x
smtp mode [queue|route]
smtp separator

    Thank you, bye!
