I did that.

Did that also.

No, what I asked mozilla to do was let me send and view in plain text.
That's all I want. No HTML lines or strange ways of quoting. Just let
me have plain text that works like NS4.

magically? Cute. Nothing in mozilla seems to happen magically. You
would think mozilla would get plain text working right first without the
fancy stuff. It's suppose to be a standards complient browser but it
won't even display plain text mail the same standard way most other mail
clients do, including OE for god sakes..
Maybe you should think about sticking your nose in some code somewhere
and letting someone with a less snyde attitude help out in with user
questions. The ego attitude gets old after a while..
I'll just stop trying to help out and wait for a final version. It's
not worth the trouble.
