Well you're wrong, 2.0 pv7 is close to twice as fast as 1.3.5. Of course
having an 060 helps too. None the less, MDII is faster, I just find it
clumsy for mail, though it is my newsreader of choice. If Ollie would
reconfigure MDII to show the return address so I could quickly identify
mailing list mail, and show if mail was sent to multiple recipients, I might
even change over. Also MDII does not respond to the author and all
recipients like YAM. Until it does those things, I'll stay with YAM. MDII
is still a good mailer though, and I'm grateful that it allows me to forward
news articles to my son, and occasionally others, and to reply in email to
news posts. This is why its my newsreader of choice. That and its easy
configuration.
