Wine anyone?

I'm trying step by step to eliminate M$ crap from my household, but
there is one program my wife uses - an old copy of PrintMaster Gold - to
make greeting cards for which I can (after massive googling) find no
Linux equivalent.  So I'm trying wine now.

I can get one of my windows games to run fine, and M$Word even runs OK,
but I can't get pmw.exe to work.

Here are some questions:

1) Anybody know about a current email group?  The only one I found
googling has no activity since 2000.

2) All wine executions include numerous warnings, like the following
which I couldn't find the following warning in the wine knowledgebase. 
Any clues?

	Warning: L"/usr/lib/wine/bin/wine" not accessible from a configured DOS
		drive

3) The pmw.exe brings up it's initial screen, then a dialog box saying
that it can't access two files that are definitely in its executable
directory, and this directory is even in the search path.

Any help would be appreciated.
