Just download another mailer somewhere -- do a WWW search for "Eudora" or
"Pegasus" (my preference being the latter) and download the latest copy of
that. Eudora Light is free AFAIK, but it doesn't have all the features of
the full version, while Pegasus is completely free and is a powerful
mailer at the same time (I guess it shows that it wasn't made in the US :)

You do if you use outlook. ;) I can crash your machine with an address
formatted like "<>".

Who cares! Please, can we dump this thread? Besides, all mailers suck,
some just suck less (or more) than others.
