   HI

   I am installing OmniWeb 1.0 on my NeXTstation at home and am having
   some difficulity.  I would appreciate some help if possible.

   My configuration:
      I am running NeXTSTEP version 3.0 on m68 black hardware,  and
      OmniWeb web brouser 1.0 prerelease.  Since the workstation is
      for personal use and is not connected to a local network, I have
      disabled the net daemons. I am using TransSys DialUpIP SLIP
      version 920904 by Louis A. Mamakos.  I followed the directions
      in their furnished documentation to set up the network
      configuration.

      I am connecting successfully to my Internet account and
      accessing the Internet.  There are several side effects
      I am having with the OmniWeb Web brouser however.

   Now for my problems:
      1.  When I click on one of the links in the brouser list or use the
          right arrow button at the top of the main OmniWeb brouser window, 
          I get an error box indicating a connection error.  When I use the
          right arrow button to try to connect again,  it works.  The error
          box indicates what appears to be a bad path.
             Example:
                http:///digifix.digifix.com/. . . and so on
                       ^
                       |
                notice the extra forward slash

           How do I fix this side effect?

      2.  I used the preferances option to try to change my default
          proxy or root path.  I locked up the application several times
          doing this.

      3.  Graphics & images do not appear in any page of information
          within the web brouser display. In their place is the standard
          NeXTSTEP square box indicating a graphic or raster image.

      4.  As soon as the OmniWeb application is started and a connection
          made I would like for my mail to be collected from a server
          different from the one I am logged on. How do I do this as I
          bring up the OmniWeb application?  On PCs a POP3 client is used
          to collect mail.  Does anyone know where I can get and set up a
          POP3 client for the NeXT?
