Well, I don't have a LAN or an IPX network, and I'll admit that the
message editor's wrapping isn't the best... I don't use tabs so that
doesn't bother me... :)

I've tried at least 5 different programs, including Eudora Light. I
chose Pegasus Mail mostly because I didn't have to RTFM to figure out
how to automagically sort the 40+ inbound e-mail's I get every time I
check my e-mail, into seperate folders. I've been told it can be
done in Eudora, but I'd rather not spend time reading the docs just
for one feature.

Now this is all beside my original point. Both Eudora and Pegasus
Mail were designed with the InterNet in mind, and consequently you
can see the From: and Reply-To: lines without problem in either of
them. cc:Mail and whatnot apparently don't allow this. Thus, either
Pegasus or Eudora is an improvement.

Have fun!
