begin Patrick Kirk quotation: > It is so hard. There are no other windows email clients that have the > ability to put shortcuts on panels.

Zero-click virus distribution, screwed-up rendering of non-HTML mail formatting (OE tends to throw away leading space on a line, which trashes Python text, among other things), and botched handling of signed mails and lines that begin with "begin " add up, to me, to a mail client that does not work, no matter what else it does. It's sort of like saying, yeah, this car works really well, except for the bit about the gas tank exploding if you ever get rear-ended, and a handful of relatively minor but equally stupid design errors that may not kill you, but they're annoying, and you have to deal with them on a daily basis.
