As to complaints, maybe I'm completely clueless, but most of my jewish friends and acquaintences (non-practicing, orthodox, etc.) can tell the difference between email and (alleged) foodstuffs. The guys down the road at the halal pizza joint[1] probably can too. I don't doubt that someone could conceivably be offended by the terminology - I wouldn't walk on eggshells because of it. If any actual (not hypothetical) offended party doesn't like the way the software works, they are free to submit a patch just like anybody else. Otherwise they are free to submit an RFE, complain here in person, or not use the software. Also, I'm certain that the developers did not choose the term to offend; given the effectiveness of the code, if they wanted to offend I'm sure they would have, very effectively... -- Bob [1] No, really. It's called "Pizza Terra" and you can imagine my disappointment when I found they didn't specialize in Chicago-style deep dish pizza...
