Mike,
You can't do that with Win 95's Telnet programme. Or at least not
to the best of my knowledge (which comes from using the applet almost
everyday). I believe there were a few postings here a couple of weeks ago
that discussedwhy some telnet programmes can print and others can't. What
it boiled down to was Win 95's programee printed to the screen, not the
printer. :-( On the other hand if you're really ambitious about saving
money you could select Terminal from the menu bar and start logging the
mail as it goes by.
Cheers!
