It is a very nice client by the same people that produce firefox. I spent a few minutes trying to find out how to set IncrediMail to quote properly. Unfortunately, there is no downloadable documentation (at least not separate from the program itself). Searching <http://www.incredimail.com/english/help/searchfaq.asp> for `quote' gave no results :-( So, IncrediMail doesn't quite seem so Incredi to me ;-) For what its worth, the feature set that they promote it with (things such as ``Amazing animations'', ''beautiful email backgrounds'', and the ability to ''add funny animations to your emails'') are all likely to be *very* unwelcome on any python or other technical list. If you really like IncrediMail for your personal email, you might think of installing Thunderbird, getting a gmail account and using the combination to post to technical lists, keeping IncrediMail for messages to friends, etc.[*] (If you need help with any of that, you can write me off-list.) [*] My guess is that after a while, you'll find yourself switching to Tbird. :-) Best wishes, Brian vdB _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
