Hi! Roger,

What's not to like about cookies?

No problems running as a VM in VirtualBox.  E.g. I've had a Win98se POP3/SMTP
server (& other facilities, like intranet HTTP) that's been running 24/7@365
in a VM for nearly six (6) years.  Also, my other old Fidonet node was running
on Win98se in a VM for mmm...trying to remember,,, nup... more than five (5)
years, at least.

If you build it, VirtualBox can run it.

To save you looking, I can drop them off to you.  Please, please... can I, can
I?  I like connecting to different systems.  :)

Cheers,
Paul.
