I couldn't get Karl's hopmail.bat to run on my PC (not enough environment space?) so I wrote this in C and it works OK.

Hey Hal,

Um although I abhor dos, I happen to know something of it... you might want to put the line:

shell=c:\command.com /e:1024 /p

in your config.sys... that will give you a K of environment space instead of the usual (256bytes?) they usually give you. Increase the 1024 as needed.
