We can all thank Nut$crape for their braindead "web browser as the
universal user interface" for all this crap and it will only get worse.
Bad enough what they did to the web, but not being contended with that
they had to give a try at screwing up e-mail too. Companies like Eudora
are just as guilty for throwing every widget possessible into their mail
clients. And while we are at it lets not forget M$ (or johnnie come
lately). By time they finish they will have every protocol on the net
screwed up.
Thanks Netscape!!
Thanks Eudora!!
Thanks Microsoft!!
Thank you one and all!!!
