Roger, as I said privately when you first asked about this I don't
understand why you need a special program to edit your filelist.  I
do it all the time with Pine and Elm with absolutely no problems, and
I am definitely not at UBVM.  I do have access to an account there, but
don't use it for that.  Just exactly what problems are you having?
 
Also, are you talking about your filelist or the list itself?  If the
later, I can't help you as I never get our list with the intent of
editing it, only for review purposes (I'm a coward, you see, afraid
of scrwing up the list).  But the filelist is easy, with a regular old
mailer that doesn't show even 80 columns.  If you can edit and PUT
your header with your system I would think you could do the same
with your filelist.
