Latest nightly's of Mozilla not good for mail/usenet
The last couple of nightly's seems have to a problem with the mail/usenet reader losing focus to other programs I will be typing a message, send it and all the sudden either another program will pop-up or the Mozilla itself will pop-up, putting the email/usenet client in the background The latest is build 2002030403 And maybe it is just me but these latest builds also seem to be slower -- Kyle, Netscape's #1 critic and hardest to please customer
