Whatever.  I misquoted the text file included with it.

It says:

"MailSend : A Shareware command-line Internet mailer for Window 95 and NT"

I just tested it.  It runs in the command line in Win9x, NT, AND DOS (tested in MS-DOS 6.22 as well as 98 and NT).  Since it runs in DOS, am I not right in believing that it is, in deed, a DOS program, and not a Windows 32-bit console program (like telnet, which doesn't require DOS or a command-line, BECAUSE it IS a console program)?
