I haven't heard much of anything at all about Folio View.
I do want something which can assign key words--the way something
like a HOLYSMOKE archive grows, one would want some means of breaking
it up into sub-files, preferably by some other means than by date.
One of these near days I want to obtain ROBOMAIL, which is
supposed to be QWK, BLUEWAVE, and I-net compatible, and which maintains
a database.  I'd like to see if the database is propriatory, or if
it can categorize only by headers (trying to look up a message by
the subject line here in HOLYSMOKE would most often be hopeless!).
I've heard very nice things about Lotus's Magellan for DOS,
but of course it's been years since that software's been manufactured.
