CRR 1.40 will answer this need of yours.

I guess you have a previous version of CRR from your second post.

CRR now supports XRS and QWK mail (QWK using a converter).

I've not posted it on SIMTEL-20 as I'm not sure if they're still taking
submissions. Look for it on bulletin boards as CRR0140.ZIP.

Known carriers of this file:

Rediffusion RBBS, California +1-213-665-5532 (HST)     Fido: 1:102/752
Aspects, Manchester UK       +44-61-792-0260 (v22bis)  Fido: 2:250/107
Merkinstead, Manchester UK   +44-61-434-7059 (HST/v32) Fido: 2:250/102

Rediffusion has it available for download (without registering on the 
board) on one of its lines. The latest version is always available from 
Aspects.

Oh, yes, I'm the author, it's shareware, and the registration is 15 GB pounds 
or $30 US, although there is no difference in features between a registered 
and an unregistered copy.

(Silver Xpress compatibility is in the pipeline.)
