Hi, Steven,

Thanks for the quick response.

Yes, I caught that one early on.

Ditto for the two "html" entries in my MIME list.

Caught this one, too. I also found and modified newsutil.cmd, although I
don't do news. Who knows? I might decide to do it one of these days.

I tried this, but found that in my installation, the only result was to
disable the function.

All that said, I'm still unable to select "Browser" from the "Open as" menu
list when I RMB on an HTML file in the Attachments folder. When I try, the
associated icon (in the "Icon" column) briefly -- very briefly --
cross-hatches and then returns to the dormant state. I did a pretty thorough
screening of my CONFIG.SYS to be sure that the LIBPATH and SET PATH
statements pointed to my Firefox installation instead of the IBMWeb
installation. The symptoms I see suggest that I might have duplicate
libraries somewhere, but I haven't figured out how to do that kind of
thorough search, yet. According to FM/2, I currently have 2,120,223K of
downloaded material. Somewhere in that mess I should be able to find a
utility to search out duplicates -- one would hope!

Anyway, if that effort proves for naught, I'll be back on this thread.
