BACKGROUND/OVERVIEW: This is a joint effort between Tomohiro Norimatsu (Becky!'s author) and me for the popular Becky! Internet Mail client . I revised, restructured and updated the help file documentation, including addition of many new links, index entries and a new structure. This effort began in summer, 2010. This help file is much bigger than the distributed help file, with over 39,800 words in current release. The focus of this help file is to provide expanded information for new and casual users so they can learn the many features of Becky!. With the included plugin, the help file works directly from within Becky!. BECKY! RESOURCES Becky! is an international product and supported by many volunteers around the world, whether in development of plug-ins, translating to other languages or administering forums.

Installation instructions and new features are included in the zipped file. Registry Export Utility: The help file includes a plugin for registry backup, plus instructions on setup.
