Great Jeff, I agree on almost all you wrote. Almost all because being ubiquitous doesn't mean that everything will run on it... :-) I'll make use of Xmail Queuemanager on a Windows client as I'll also make tests using Outluck, oops, Outlook. I also think it's a good thing to use what my users use, despite of my preferences. Anyway, I would like to see, some day, Xmail Queuemanager running on my Linux box. So this is not an emergency, just something to realize a dream. :-) Still talking about Windows omnipresence, one of my enterprise products is to do exorcism. We already did it in some clients enterprises (all stations and servers with Linux now). Helio
