I've read the elm documentation from cover to cover vainly searching for
any reference to the servicing of novice users as the prime reason d'etre
of elm.

But obviously, if that is *really* the case, elm isn't for me, unless I
make the changes I feel necessary myself - as has been pointedly and very
rightly suggested by Syd Weinstein.

The hostility my seemingly reasonable wish-list seems to have created in
certain quarters is unfortunate, but I did get a very reasonable response
in others.  I thought perhaps I could contribute a little from my
experience, but relax, I will now crawl back into the hole I emerged from
and fumble around for another mailer that may suit my needs better.

Very sorry Eric, I'll try not to do this again, honest.  I didn't realize
who I was speaking to, and that following implies agreeing.  Am I forgiven?
