I normally don't do "me too" posts, but this is an exception. I have
been using the Mail/News client since before it was usable. :-) I agree
that the team has made great strides. I was keeping 4.77 around just in
case Mail/News acted silly, but it has been gone since 0.9.2, and it
won't return. All the folks who have worked so hard, often thanklessly,
deserve kudos.
