Please don't break threading. Have your MUA set those *followup-to headers properly (I really don't understand these well), and at least don't change the subject unless there is a very strong reason for doing so. Having said that, you'd probably do better reporting a bug to the respective apps authors, and/or asking on the respective apps maillists. Once I played some Solar System cruising simulator, and it grabbed the mouse so that the mouse cursor was prevented from leaving the app window. I considered it a feature, and simply played it on a separate X display, or closed the app when I wanted to do something different. Minimizing helped, too, maybe. I really can't remember quite clearly. HTH -- Jan Minar "Please don't CC me, I'm subscribed." x 9
