-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello rich,
On Mon, 22 Dec 2003 18:29:19 -0500 your time, you said: rg> Again, both are quite unprofessional. What a load of nonsensical claptrap! I've read some comments on this list over the years but my word, these last few remarks really take the biscuit. There is nothing 'unprofessional' about the way The Bat! editor functions, and I must say it is a very discouraging choice of wording. There are distinctive ways of doing things in TB! but those ways work well once you have adapted to them. There is plenty of help available on this list to assist new users in moving to The Bat! from other email clients, and the people offering advice obviously appreciate that it can take a while to complete the transition, and come to terms with the new environment. But you have to at the least appreciate that _every_ email client has it's unique points, and TB! is no exception. If you want really decide that you want TB! to be another email client then switch to that. The benefit of using an excellent client like TB! is that it ISN'T always completely 'mainstream', and so it does require users to learn how to use some of it's many useful features. And TB! is rich in features, unlike other clients I won't mention. Although TB! isn't perfect, because nothing is, it stands head and shoulders above the competition. I think it is perfectly fine to discuss the disadvantages of a program, and talk about its ideal features, etc. but it's a bit unnecessary, unhelpful, and even disrespectful, IMO, to be hypercritical for the sake of it. Anyone would think you, and a few others, were being forced to use TB! rather than using it by choice. Merry Christmas. - -- Slán, Simon @ i~n+f~o+w~i+z~a+r~d+.~c+o~.+u~k ***************************************** PGP Key via Web: http://pgp.infowizard.co.uk/ PGP Key via Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Faffing about with TB! v1.62r on W2K SP4 #1532.
