Once again, I'm sorry that I'm not familiar with Squirrelmail and I guess I'm
not a good sales person.  On the other hand, I wonder how many Toyota car
sales person are familiar with Nissan cars and explain why Toyota is better
than Nissan. :)

If there is anything I can do to help you understand our project better,
please let me know. I'll even relay any message related to perl programming to
our master developers in Taiwan.
