works. Windows NT (and Outlook, when it comes to
e-mail) happen to fit that bill quite well.
For my servers, yes, they're all running Debian.
On the desktop, though, I need *real* applications
that allow me to actually accomplish things.
I really couldn't care less what broken email client you choose to run.
That's your choice. My only pet peeve which the MS mail clients are
their horrible default settings for the attribution and quoting that
muck up the threads in a discussion list like this one.
That said, I tend to be highly suspicious of anyone that posts email to
this list with a MS mail client. It's one thing for a newbie that's
having installation trouble with Debian, but it likely shows ignorance
for a so-called experienced Linux user. You would be hard-pressed to
find another person on this list that thought MS mail products are
superior to Unix ones.
Joost is one of the most knowledgable people on this list, and you
basically said he was wrong. I thought that was pretty ignorant, and
not surprising from someone who used MS products. With your reply, you
just proved my point nicely.
