I use Mozilla mail. I like it because I can right click on links and open them in tabs. It comes in handy since I help on some forums too. I'll have to work on this one day. I'm disabled and have health problems, which is driving me nuts right now. Plus my girlfriend decided to go mud riding in her Dad's big truck, read that as she had a wreck and broke some ribs. Throw in two kids and I am having a good bit of fun right now. My lady has cable modem. zoom zoom zoom. I get about 1.5MB/sec here, especially late at night. On dial-up my emerge sync took about 45 minutes. Now it takes very little time at all: > real 12m35.937s > user 8m37.284s > sys 0m24.046s > [EMAIL PROTECTED] / # much faster. :D Most of that is the metadata thing now though. Maybe one day. o_O Back to bed now. It's only 2:45AM here. O_O Dale :-) -- [email protected] mailing list
