Two things:

1) Anyone have any experience using Outlook as opposed to OE?  I have
played with it a little and it seems to work better than OE.

2) I am seeing another problem, and I have posted it before with a link
to a screen capture of OE, but kmail has the same issue.  The problem is
that the from field displayes "minutes:seconds@" where the minutes and
seconds are taken from the date displayed.  Weird huh... This is with
DBMail 1.1, have not tried it with CVS.

Here agains is a link to the screen capture.
