for some reason, I had assumed that the dialup (and email client)
wasn't using NIE (like on a 1.x Newton) so I had provided details on
setting up the email proxy.
Ron, if you do have a full network connection via NIE, then much better
to use the browser to pre-fetch pages (and graphics) -- Newt's Cape has
a lot of scheduling features bulit-in. (you could still use the mail
proxy stuff if you just wanted to tinker).
