Well, there exist many more;-) m/e ratio, for one;-) As for _you_... well, give 
me your value first;-)

For *me*, it's a question of screen real estate. Two characters more saved... 
As for the "On 27 Jan 00, at 19:38, Nico Schirwing wrote" line above, well, 
some might think "Jan 00" is a bit ugly (looks like a toilet for some <g>), but 
for me it again hardly matters as far as I'm perfectly understood.

Are you going to be cloned (uhm... let me count...) about 133,(3) times? What 
a heroic attempt to eternity!;-)

Actually, it's already there: it's a matter of how you position the MDI childs of 
Pegasus. Provided that they remember their size/pozition (which they clearly 
do), one needing preview pane just needs to position the folder listing in the 
upper-right corner of the screen, the message reader -- in the lower right 
corner, and voila. Personally, I don't think preview pane is useful at all. As far 
as Pegasus is concerned, preview pane is said to be there later this year 
(maybe;-)).
