I must use XP at work.  The fist thing I did when getting my PC was
to make it look like Win2K.

My GNOME system looks disturbingly like Win2K also...

I like a GUI MUA to be in a vertically adjacent 2-pane
configuration, with the actual email that I'm reading in it's own
window.

When the email window is active, Tbird lets me press "n", and that
brings the next un-read message into that same window.  When all the
emails in a folder are read, "n" prompts me to go to the next folder
with un-read mail.

But KMail made me close the email window in order to press "n" to
get to the next unread email.  Maybe most KMail users/developers
just like 3-pane operation.
