	Going Postal 3.1.1.0

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Compatability:
	Compatable with AOL versions 3 & 4
	Windows 95/98

----------------------------------------------------------------------

What it does:
	'Going Postal' contains four configurable lists:
	'Never Filter', 'Always Delete', 'Allowed', and 'Not Allowed'.

	The 'Never Filter' and 'Always Delete' lists are for email
	addresses and domain names.
	The 'Allowed' and 'Not Allowed' lists are for words or phrases.

   	Whenever new mail is read, 'Going Postal' first checks the
	mail address against the 'Never Filter' list. If a match is
	found the filtering stops and the next piece of mail is
	filtered. If a match is not found the 'Always Delete' list
	is checked. If a match is found the mail is deleted.

   	Going Postal then filters the mail by scanning the mail subject
	for selected words. When a word in the 'Allowed' list is found
	the mail is not deleted and the next piece of mail is filtered.
	If no words from the 'Allowed' list are found the mail is then
	filtered for words in the 'Not Allowed' list. If a word from
	the 'Not Allowed' list is found the mail is deleted.

	'Going Postal' can also optionally scan the content of
	the mail. 

	The scan is non case sensitive, and only looks for
	whole words. You may enter multiple words or phrases
	such as	'GET RICH QUICK'.

	When 'Going Postal' is working, the status (what it's
	doing) will show in the title bar of the Mail window.

	Note:	The same actions apply to mail deleted by
		'Going Postal' that apply to mail deleted
		by you.

	*Note:	If you have the Mail Preference - 'Retain all
		mail I read in my Personal Filing Cabinet'
		checked, mail whose content has been scanned
		and deleted is still saved in your PFC.

		* This does not apply to flashsession mail.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Options:
	There are two scanning options:

	Scan Auto:	Automatically scans mail when 'Enabled'
			is checked in popup menu.

	Scan Manual:	Scans mail when 'Scan Now' is clicked
			in popup menu.

	Note:	When 'Scan Auto' is selected 'Enabled' is
		checked automatically.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Never Filter:
	You can enter internet addresses / domain names
	in 'Going Postal' to prevent 'Going Postal' from
	scanning any mail from these addresses/domains

Always Delete:
	You can enter internet addresses / domain names
	in 'Going Postal' to always delete mail from these
	addresses/domains.

	Examples:
		EMail Address:	billybob@someplace.com
		Domain Name:	@someplace.com

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Passwords:
	You can enter a password to prevent 'Going Postal' from
	being configured, disabled, or closed without the
	password.

	Note:	Entering no passwords in the Change Password
		boxes will turn off password protection.
