That's what I meant...I don't have a copy of Souper95 here at work,
where I'm doing my e-mail thing.

Ok...since I have access to the Mindspring news server, through my
wife's account, I've set up two different .newsrc files, and two
different "soupdown.bat" files, one for America.Net, and one for
Mindspring. And, it's all working fine now.
I'll have a question about newsrc files later, though...the newsrc file
for Mindspring (after several 1 MB SOUP packets) is looking kinda odd.
