Mail & news in 0.9.6 is considerable less stable than 0.9.5. I have had several freeze ups with 0.9.6 (something I never experienced with 0.9.5). 0.9.6 does inclue several new features such as print preview and view headers all (things many people have been asking for). The browser feels as stable as 0.9.5, but in my opinion mail & news has regressed in stability. I have also been unable to view images in newsgroups with 0.9.6, although I can view them in mail. Odd........ I would suggest you may want to wait for 0.9.7 around the end of the year unless you badly want/need print preview and view headers all to work. Dennis
