Actually OE works just fine for everything I'm trying to do with it.  Of
course I have HTML display and the like shut off.  But the main reason for
using OE is because it comes with the OS and is already here, and I'm used
to it.  It doesn't work the way a mailer would if I wrote it, but I've got
far better things to do than worry about my mailer.

I always get a chuckle out of people telling others what tools to use.  It's
usually based on the argument that some other tool is "better", which is
usually a minor issue compared to familiarity, hassle of installing, and
learning something new.  And then there are those that rant against anything
from Microsoft solely because it is from Microsoft, and think everyone else
should switch due to their own religious beliefs.  Somewhere along the line
actually getting work done seems to get forgotten.
