To those using Spruce, I was wondering whether you could answer a question for me. When I go to COMPOSE or REPLY or FORWARD the compose window that comes up locks Spruce and I have to Nuke the window to get it to close. Do you know why this would be happening? It is a good mail client and I

Re: [expert] OT - Spruce

FYI - I downloaded spruce 0.6.2 this afternoon and installed it. It installed without a hitch (though I would have preferred a binary file) and the setup was a piece of cake. The client runs like a dream and handles all aspects of my mail that I could ask for. Not to mention, the GUI is easy

Re: [expert] Office Suite for Linux

As far as applixware goes. I would give it a wide berth. I tried the demo the other day and am not suitably impressed. The word program was ghastly, and the less said about the e-mail client the better. Despite its flaws, Staroffice is still your best bet as far as office apps go. Wayne > ==
