Oh yes, don't forget to mention the wonderful NeXTstep MIME  
mail-reader someone mentioned we all should get...  It's called  
'MailManager', and it's a total piece of CRAP compared to Mail.app.    
Maybe, just maybe, if someone wrote a MIME newsreader that was half  
as decent as NG, we would all use it...
