John,I finally bit the bullet, backed up everything, and before doing something so foolhardy as reinstalling my Win2000, on a hunch I uninstalled the email and installed the new version. It works, and I have to eventually merge my saved files with the new program, but that is not too much trouble.
I was ready to tackle the Windows problem, but you can bet I'm tickled pink that I didn't have to do it.
