Yes ,exactly a choice of one, TB really cannot compete with the "all
in one " no-brainer LookOut type appz they should stick with what they
are good at, they have a niche market of users who appreciate a mostly
RFC compliant client which does not attempt to be "all things to all
people". If you try to do that you end up with the lowest common
denominator, and might as well use LookOut. I appreciate that RIT are
a business, and should try to maximize their user base, but they are
on a hiding to nothing competing with LookOut and Eudora so they
would be better off keeping their niche market happy (i.e. most people
on this list). Their "natural" market is the new Linux user looking
for something more friendly than Fetchmail/Sendmail et al, as you have
pointed out in the past there is nothing currently in Linux that meets
the needs of a user with multiple ISP accounts. XFMail comes close but
the interface needs work, and xforms are not Open Source AFAIK.
