This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Help File for Mailq Version 2.5 ! Well if haven't guessed what it does .... Here !MailDir also applies to !TCPIPUser.MailDir ! Mailq generates a mailqueue listing of the TCP / IP mailqueue found inside !MailDir. For this reason !MailDir has to be 'seen' by the filer. Thats all you have to do. Find !MailDir and then double click on !Mailq. Additions for this version 2 ! It now checks for a blank line in the work file. This blank line will really bugger up smtp when connecting to demon ! Version 2.5 Now does a news posting queue Taking the form of id, size, queue time, sender, subject and newsgroup(s) Checks if it is a failed message. Mail also checks to see if a mail message has been bounced out to demon by Mailer Daemon. All flames to null: All bug reports (Help!) to Mailq@ease.demon.co.uk Many thanks to StrongHelp ( SWI bit's ) and to Alan Donovan <aad1001@hermes.cam.ac.uk> For the info on how to get the date stamp Many thanks to Rob @wong for invaluable help (c) David Walker (mailq@ease.demon.co.uk)
