AARRRRGGGGHHHH!!! I *hate* that "x-loop-to" header! Kmail
doesn't care much for it either. Maybe kde 1.1.2 will fix
that "bug"! :-)

Which distro of Linux are you running? Which window manager
are you using? I'm using KDE1.1.1/RedHat6.0 here. Comes
with a pretty nifty little mail client called KMail. It
will also allow you to check mail on a remote server as
someone other than the current login.
