Hallo John,

On Wed, 12 Mar 2003 10:13:51 -0600GMT (12-3-03, 17:13 +0100, where I
live), you wrote:

I added the address for tbudl in the address book and used that for my
message, when I manually entered an address, Foxmail decided that I had
to be mistaken and put the address between <> behind the original.
Thus creating an address like:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
which is invalid, because the characters '@' and '.' are reserved and
have to be placed between quotes, so it would read:
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Well, actually it wasn't 'help', at least not for you. <g,d&r> It was
done to disprove your statement made in:
<mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> that this list would filter
messages from certain e-mail clients.

Apart from the item that it mangled proper manually entered addresses,
it's not quite the e-mail client I'd prefer. I had a few messages
waiting and it didn't want to collect them. When I get back from
vacation I'd like my mail client to collect the mail. TB had no
problems with 23 MB of mail, even Outbreak Express didn't hesitate,
but Foxmail couldn't handle it. Definitely not for e-mail
professionals. That was the point that I stopped my evaluation.
