No, apparently it hadn't, it has now. I extend my sympathies for your 
HAVING to use OE, and my apologies for the leap to judge. Fortunately, I 
have control of the browser/mail client I use. For business related 
stuff, it's NC 4.77 -- I need the relative stability and usefulness. For 
experimentation (ostensibly evaluation of Moz for use by the company), I 
use Moz. At home, I use linux/konqueror/kmail (just installed Moz the 
other night, will start using it to read the Moz newsgroups at home).

Point taken.
