Im definitely going to do that - thanks!
I love this list - Im a complete linux newb but Im picking up so many
useful things!

Yeah, I really should do that - Im not going to be helping myself if my
posts get fragmented! Is it my exchange server screwing things up or my
client (M$ Outlook)?
I've got two boxes - XP and linux - and I currently VNC back to XP for
work emails.
If I could only get Evolution connected to my exchange server I could
live in bliss on my linux box and forget about my windows box for 99% of
the time :o)
I do have a g-mail account, but for some reason I prefer writing emails
in a 'non browser' environment (... Not sure why though).
