This is my first *intended* post... alluding to a problem I've encountered
trying to delete messages:
Sometimes I write an e-mail msg but don't send it immediately. Then I edit
the msg (one or more times, using BOXER for OS/2) to add or correct informa-
tion. The newly modified msg is saved and added to msgs to be sent, but the
old copies of these modified msgs are not automatically deleted from the
folder. I have to delete them individually by hand so only the most recent
versions are left. Is there some Yarn setting that I need to correct to do
this automatically, or is it related to how my editor operates? (When sav-
ing a modified file BOXER automatically moves the original one to the \BOXER
\BACKUP directory, using overwrite, and saves the new version.)
Yesterday I tried my first Yarn post, just to see how to access the option.
I wrote one, designated it 'Send', looked at it to see what header Yarn puts
on it, then deleted it. Or so I thought... Fortunately it only contained
the words 'test only', because today there it was on the comp.os.os2.apps
newsgroup. So now I'm afraid to save anything that I don't want to go out
verbatim, maybe in all its incarnations. Any ideas or suggestion on this?
Another question: Is it possible to instruct Yarn to use different GLOBAL
configuration files, as I specify depending on whether the msg I'm sending
is a simple e-mail msg (so I can give my undistorted 'From:' address) or a
newsgroupd post (when I would want to incorporate a spam-foiling decoy)?
The thought here is that the two GLOBAL files would have different 'From:'
data. Or is there an easier way to accomplish the same thing? Would some-
thing like YEP be useful for this?
I'm using Yarn 0.92 with OS/2 Warp 3.
Thank for all suggestions.
