They confuse me, I don't like them. Is there something so fundamentally wrong
with that? Its a personal preference.

There's a plus...unlike Outlook/OE which practically shoves Arial down the

Why do my personal software preferences matter to you? Is it your business
what I use to post with and read email with? Is it your business if I like to
use the same thing for both of them. Is it your business to tell me what to
do if I'm trying to 1) solve the problem, and 2) stick with an [IMO] reliable,
powerful, easy to use piece of software I'm 100% comfortable with and paid
money for?
I don't think so.
