Ok, I'm using T-bird now, since I'm trying out XFce4.  But there are
a couple of things that Evo does that I can't find in T-bird.

Q1. How do you use a executable .signature (fortune, etc)?

Q2. I get my mail from an IMAP store that uses server-side
    filtering.  How do I tell T-bird to scan all folders for new
    mail?  Clicking on every folder gets old.

Thanks,
Ron
