The > question is whether Outlook will support it. ;) That's what we were talking about. It seems to work entirely adequately with the 4 or 5 versions of Lookout! and Lookout! Distress we've tested with. It also works with Netscrape 4.x and 6.x, TkRat/Ratatosk, and Mulberry. I haven't tried Eudora yet, but the wrecking^Wtesting crew will get to that sometime soon. Too bad that it's infested with the GPL virus, but it turns out to not affect me really, because it's an optional package. ;^) -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
