>I ask for the second time. Have you ever used Thunderbird? What are you using to read these newsgroups? I can optimize Windows computers easily. That was my specialty. I don't do that anymore because I don't have any Windows computers. Please continue to whine about me. It makes me feel so special. Don't expect me to switch back to T-bird because yoose feels threatened about it.


I expect you to use Google Groups for the rest of your life. So that
you don't have all those problems anymore
