To each his own, I guess.  I'll take your word on Claris Emailer; I
haven't used that since switching to PM as well and I can't recall if it
behaved the same way.  I admit I got used to it but I find it telling
that as soon as I realized that this version allowed CMD-click, I went
back to it as if I had been doing it throughout.

I am very sure I mean CMD-click.  As you correctly point out above, CTRL-
click is normally used as a way to pull up a contextual menu.  It is in
fact a separate and very useful function I wish to preserve.
