Pegasus Mail for Windows does this without a problem, threaded or
not. :) Have a mailbox with 694 messages (sized from 4 - 722K) that
works great. 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
