Got that. Actually a very cool way of doing it. New for me at least, coming
from Emailer...

I see. What's the "standard" that a mailing list needs to conform with? Just
so I can tell the "list mums" out there what to do...

I realize the icons are a great step forward, but as we all know, Mac people
like to customize... The Icon Factory guys should know that! I, for one,
think the icons make the interface too "busy", I like a "clean" look much
better. Entourage already has the ability to switch sound sets, why not
enable "icon sets"?

I'm using E2k1, tried ResEdit, but couldn't find the icons Entourage uses
for mail. Any ideas where to look?

Talking about customizing and changing things: Is there a way to change the
font that's used for the calendar and to turn off the small month display?
Coming from the Palm desktop (aka Claris Organizer) the calendar function of
Entourage seems a step back. Is there no version of "banners" (untamed daily
recurring events) in E? That's so strange a shortcoming for such a good
email app...

Hope this makes sense,

 - Theo Angell
