Yeah -- I'd wager there are even a few Eudora power users out there who know nothing about the several thousand x-eudora-setting URLs that can be used to configure all sorts of crazy things in Eudora. Eudora mostly doesn't force you to do this because its normal GUI handles what most people need, and the defaults are sane. The problem isn't that too many things can be configured; it's one of setting sensible defaults in the first place so that most people don't *need* to. (UI for configuration changes should be sane, though. Eudora's is not.) _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list List help: http://lists.ranchero.com/listinfo.cgi/email-init-ranchero.com
