Thanks for the offer Mike. At present, there are two things I have planned
for myself to play with in Mahogany. I want to have spam filtering an
integral part - not via proxies etc A real button in the program situation,
not something you have to use an external program or browser to run. Now I
know that the current 0.65 will come with a nice set of inbuilt text
filters but it is not a complete solution. I like the concept of something
like spambayes built in. Buttons that say this is spam that sort of thing. 

Now I know it is not something I can do entirely myself but everything
helps. 

The second thig is I want a Palm or Pocket PC type interface so I can get
out of the house and have offline Internet. It would be nice to get out in
the sun and still be able to do mail, do groupware, read a PDF, whatever. 

Thanks for the offer above. Let me get a bit more down the Python path and
I'll get back to you.

I actually went to EBay.com.au for the first time today (OK, I lead a
sheltered life LOL) and it was a shock to see the difference in price
compared to the $500-1200 that Palm's go for RRP. 

I *GOTTA* get out more ;-) LOL

TIA

Dr. QA
