Hi All,

Can anyone answer any of the following:

1) Is Oasis still under development and do the most recent versions solve
any of the many bugs?

2) Why do I get so many checksum errors on both e-mail and use-net
downloads. They seem to be more common during peak usage periods but I was
still getting a lot at 3.00 AM today!

3) Why does Oasis perform reasonably well for a number of days and then,
without any real reason, start giving error messages such as Error -33, File
Not Found. After exiting and checking the News Folder the 'Group' file is no
longer there (Either it's been deleted or, I suspect, been left open!) 
When this happens I find that I have to copy my backup of the News folder
and reset all the group details based on the time of the crash.

Any help with these would be much appreciated

Regards

Paul
