I realize that, I use both. But I think I already made that clear. > > So what's the problem? <shrug> Okay, I will rephrase what I already mentioned in a different way. The problem is two folds. 1: The users I have in mind do not use these clients. Also, they are of the demography which cannot be made to switch without a lot of difficulty. In fact, in some cases, the user is not likely to switch at all. 2: The users use various web mails which cannot be read via the mail clients. FireGPG was a pretty neat extension which got around both these problems. -- Please reply to this list only. I read this list on its corresponding newsgroup on gmane.org.
