I'd be a lot more impressed with Kiltdown if it were less like Outlook. Take a look at the quoted text below: it's mutilated in a Microsoft-like fashion. If you could fix that, I'm sure you'd have a lot more users. Specifically, the original text was: >> i search a very good mua for freebsd (X11), i like outlook express under >> win2K, and i want an equivalent under freebsd + X11; i know postilion, but >> is there another (stable, beautifull, filters, multiple pop3/smtp, etc >> ...). I have tried spruce but it crashed (core dump), balsa need gnome, >> etc... kmail perhaps ? but i have heard that there was problem with kde 2.1 Kiltdown found the lines too long and wrapped like this: >>> i search a very good mua for freebsd (X11), i like outlook express > under >>> win2K, and i want an equivalent under freebsd + X11; i know > postilion, but >>> is there another (stable, beautifull, filters, multiple pop3/smtp, > etc >>> ...).
