I do not mean the external pics...  I meen the inline ones...  On the
Debian-List there are several subscribers, which use crapy WebMailer
which add publicity in form of Pics at the end.

Very right.

OK.

Currently I am coding a KDE/Gnome-free IMAP-MUA, based
on the ideas of mutt but for X-Window, using GTK+ 2.0.

I collect many ideas to code my MUA.  ;-)

So this M-F-T/List-Reply Thread is realy interesting...

I was on teh Mozilla and Thunderbird Lists (some other MUA's too)
and the trend is going into the direction of Windows stuff...

To make OUR Linux suitable for Windows-Switchers...

I think, copying those Windows stuff is the false way.  I like to
code more strict based on RFC's not on some ideas of a proprietary
software which could be nice features.

What I want to say is, some peoples know allready abourt my MUA (GUI
already coded with basic functions) but those $USERS are Winnies,
and they claim I should code things, against RCF and all...

Those are only Windows Gadgets I have never used and never missed.
OK, I have put it onto a wishlist, but...

...you know, we are "hobby" coders and coding for fun and freedom.
I must work hard for my money and if someone wants a professionel
program, why not, but I need money to live (6000 Euro per month).

So, Mozilla-Mail and Thunderbird are implementing one feature after
one, but nothing realy wise.  Oh, I have a big wishlist for Mozilla
and Sisters, but if I post them, the Developers send me some jobles
russian KGB killers.  Maybe CIA and MOSSAD.
