Have you tried Netmail?  It is by the same author and is designed for
automated mail sending but you can use it manually.  It is even simpler
and faster.  You can find it at his site (if you use some browser other
than Lynx - his html has problems - or maybe hit ' to see things).

I am sorry you do not live closer so we could give you a better working
CD-ROM drive.  We keep finding them here in computers left with the trash.
People are replacing them with CD writers and DVD players.  Does your
computer repair store not have any used drives?    Do you want to pay the
postage for one of ours?  I don't like buying new equipment either, out of
principle.  A used drive there might be cheaper than the postage for ours.
