I also agree with the above statement, but I have had plent enough times
where OE 5.0 has crashed as soon as it starts for no apparent reason; and I
have no way currently of reading e-mail, or connecting to the internet from
linux, so I'm stuck. So maybe there is a reason to bash it, not that I'm
condoning it ;o). Besides that, it has to be the best e-mail program out
as far as functionality and ease of use is concerned.
