I agree. Over the years I have tried various linux mail/news readers and web browsers. Unfortunately, while they may be very powerful I still honestly prefer to use Outlook and Internet Explorer. The day I find suitable replacements Win98 is off this machine. I check the freshmeat site every few days in hope. Each now and again I do consider writing my own mail/new reader for linux. It really a matter of getting enough time and motivation. I don't like the Netscape browser on either Win98 or Linux. It's clunky and seems to crash with a greater regularity than Internet Explorer. So I use Win98 for the internet and Debian for work. Regards ...
