I hang out with the Pronto! developers and have been trying to help out with
it (not an easy task since I can't program my way out of a paper bag, but I draw cute
penguin icons :) And I agree with you...this is one excellent piece of software :)

As far as I remember, Muhri has said that you need gtkhtml 0.4 cause they
changed the api in 0.5 and Pronto hasn't gone to that api yet. The other option is to
use CSCHtml (http://cscmail.net/cschtml/) which is a de-gnomization of gtkhtml done by
Steve (the original CSCMail developer). I use CSCHtml and it works sweetly.
BTW, Pixel....I've been talking with muhri (the Pronto head developer) about
getting Pronto (and CSCHtml) included with Mandrake's next release....how would we go
about it? :)
