It should, but since you're having errors, who knows? One thing you
need to watch when doing this is the placement of your .newsrc for yarn
and uqwk. You replies aren't held in a permanent folder, but are
placed in the reply packet. Check the path in the following line in
your yarn config file.

# SOUP reply packet containing outgoing messages
reply-packet=e:\uploads\yarn.zip

No inbox? I thought this was created by default. Will yarn create a
new folder? Folders should be in the %home%\mail directory. Try
creating one with 'o', then find where the folder was created.

Sorry, I don't know about uqwk, so will close this reply.
