I once got several copies of a gigantic multi-megabyte spam from someone with a Hotmail address. I mailed [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the offending email as an attachment. I got a reply saying that I should quote the headers in my message. When I commented that I'd sent the whole of the email to them, I was told that Hotmail staff can't open attachments "for security reasons". > If you must use webmail, use Yahoo.

She says it's "easier", but she's never actually tried to use a proper mail client. Similarly, it's "easier" to use a handful of different IM clients than to use one of the unified clients like Jabber or Trillian. It's enough to make me despair.
