Err, you're not implying that the versions before or after that are
usable, are you? I find them all a hair pulling experience (It's
*still* a crummy knockoff of the 1988 (sys 5) Mac interface . . .)

I can sit here amused by the virus (unix). It's slowing down,
though--it took three days to get the first gig of them, and only
1.3G more in over a week.


Unix/Linux can go into mail filters and set "delete attachments
from 140-160 kb."


I've got a few procmail filters doing it.
