Not for reading e-mails. One knows the hotkeys one needs so it's not a
hassle....

Well bitchx sucks(my personal opinion). It has to much automatisisms one
has to deactivate before on can use it(at least it was 2 years ago). I
will stick to my graphical Windows IRC client....

The rest of my apps run under windows. Reading e-mails through a ssh
session on my linux box which has no monitor is no problem. For
cut&paste I'm using the mouse on my Windows box within the ssh session
as well.

But it's strange. You are flameing me instead of giving the initiator an
answer. The initiator asked for a e-mail-client that supports threading.
mutt supports threading and that was the thing the initiator asked for.
Remember?

Udo
