Walt </pre> </blockquote> Walt, Your statement about "personal choice" says it all for me. I happen to prefer Thunderbird, but I really like the fact that I can try Evolution or Mozilla or whatever else I want. When I used Microsoft, I made do with applications that didn't necessarily meet all my needs because I was financially invested in the software. Now I freely choose from the best (for me) of whatever's available. If Ubuntu makes Thunderbird the default e-mail package, that's fine with me. If it doesn't, that's fine with me too. I'll just load it (as I have) change the Gnome "Preferred Applications", and I'm happy. If something else comes along that I like better...well, I'll change to that. Regards, Bill </body> </html>
