ELM is an email program, Juno is an email provider... Saying you use Juno
when someone asks if you use ELM is like saying "Yeah, I like apples"
after being asked "Do you want me to check the oil?" :)

Unless, of course, Juno provides you with a mailer of its own, in which
case forget I ever said the above...

I can't forget. It's not in my nature.<sound of arcing electronics> Yes,
juno provides an e-mail proggie. That's so they can display the ads at the
top of the screen, which is how it remains a freemail. Incidentally, if you
call up any of their access numbers with a term program, you see some
interesting things, like the networks that they use. =)

Juno is a service that FORCES you to use their mail program
