I have several mailboxes with over 300 messages in them, fully threaded, with no problems. Now, *I'd* like to see a Microsoft product try that. :) Just because something runs on Windows doesn't mean it's automatically crap. However, if Microsoft codes that program, the odds are *very* high that it's crap. :) Cheers, Freddie fcash@bigfoot.com Reject complexity, embrace simplicity, and leave your ego at the door. - Colonel Kernel @ http://dualboot.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
