I took a gander at it a while back as one of my friends had installed
it on her system and was having problems with the built in SMTP
routine. My feelings? I have enough eyestrain from the "clown suit for

over my desktop, dropping down pretty boxes at will, formatting
messages it's way etc.

No thanks! The_Bat! in the plain text mode is fine for me!
