That's the way it's supposed to work, afaik. It does mean you have to
buckle down and think about what you specifically want/need, but
"customization" always requires that, whether it's because you're

Hello,
When I have not sync'd in over a month or so and when I ran:

Same for T-bird. BTW, look at Korn for a newsreader .
