I hope I can calm us down a bit. Karin made one good point about
Eudora and fonts: You can change them with the click of a button.
Since most "formatting" in e-mail is IMHO not that important (see
Steve's or other's signatures) I use this feature in Agent sometimes.
If there is a signature or some highlighting like yours I click on
"FP", look at it and done. Nice feature.

Oh, and Karin, I see aou are from the Netherlands. Not that far
culturally from Germany, or? And that's where I am from and I can
totally see your point with the tab/blank line but Steve is right, in
e-mail and other electronic text blank lines for paragraphs are kind
of standard. And other than in books or letters (but have a look at
business letters!) I think it good. Yes, I am a professional writer,
too, for some years now.

Our country is at that awkward stage: It's too early to shoot the bastards, and too 
late for working within the system to do any good.
