I have eudora 5.1 (running win XP (spit!))... but when I install
Netscape 4.79 fresh, when I then try to bring up netscape mail (coz I
want to use it for another pop mailbox than eudora y'see) eudora gets
started! I haven't selected (AFAIK) any such requirement in the
netscape install... how do I stop this? ie netscape mail is run from
netscape messenger selection?
I can access the mail window from selecting "news" ... but any attempt
to WRITE a new mail message ... you guessed it ... used EUDORA.
Any ideas? I can only presume this is some sort of horrible registry
thing... :-(
cheers

Cool Phil, you're two hours late again ... :-[

Netscape is a distribution of Mozilla. They (NS) periodically upgrade
their browser suite by basing it on a Mozilla release. That's the
super-compact explanation, anyway.

He is using Communicator which has nothing to do with Mozilla. Your
comment only applies to Netscape 6/7.

[Bamm Gabriana]

que? what's the difference?

Go to www.mozilla.org to download Mozilla and see. It's also a browser
but it's much better than Netscape 4.79.

Or if you want to stay with Netscape, download Netscape 7.0 Beta 1 which
is based on a recent version of Mozilla.
