You do not have total control over the formatting of the message, and I have yet to consciously note that any webmail app I have ever tangled with even pretended to do threading correctly. I still avoid them like the plague, a decade & change after they convinced all the winders folks that it was somehow the cats meow.

I've not made that jump from wheezy yet as I prefer to let the infant mortalities to abate, I like a system that JUst Works(TM). > I have tried several test installs on a different machine using > various desktop options.

Odd, but I've never paid much attention to the mouse in a tty situation even if I could get it to work, That used to be easy a decade+ back in redhat 6.3 but died after fedora 3 IIRC. > MATE worked just fine: no bizarre behavior with the DM, login works > just fine, and the GUI works as expected.

So now it seems, if I am following this fractured thread correctly, you are asking a linux oriented group, to fix Apple's WebMail? I only know of one person I've known for nearly 3 decades who is now at Apple, and webmail isn't something he is involved in so I won't suggest his name. Linux, specifically Debian, problems, someone here can probably address. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
