Thanks for the awesome info!  That helped a lot.  I also found one more gotcha that is worth sharing on this topic.

The menu option you use to post netmail specifically has to have an action above the post action to change to the NetMail area, or it won't work.  Same is true for reading NetMail.

Tanks much, Kerr.
