The reason I like it is that it is a simple "Outlook" look alike that
does packet radio mail. Unfortunately, I can't get it to work.
If we don't pay attention to Winlink and Airmail there is a chance
that they will take over amateur packet radio completely and
leave the rest of out in the cold. An ARRL endorsement has
the power to make things happen, but not always. Remember the
nationwide 220 MHz packet network. Wonder what happened
to that.
