*glares* Sometimes, especially on the Windows platform, its hard trying to find an email program which does what you need it to. I've tried Eudora, Netscape/Mozilla, and a few others I forget what they are named. All feel clutsy and incomplete. Outlook and its little friend Outlook Express at least work pretty consistantly. I've not had serious problems using it full time. Now, before everyone starts calling me a Microsoft supporter - I hate microsoft just as much as any other sysadmin/netadmin. But sometimes (abeit rarely), microsoft does something halfway decent. Now, if I could get K-Mail forWindows, I'd be in good shape. -------------------------- Brian Bruns The Summit Open Source Development Group Open Solutions For A Closed World / Anti-Spam Resources http://www.2mbit.com ICQ: 8077511 ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Lesher" <wb8foz@nrk.com> To: "nanog list" <nanog@merit.edu> Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2003 10:01 AM Subject: Re: Worst design decisions?
Sorry, I missed the hands-down winner in my initial thinking, since it's not in my arena [hardware]..
The envelope please..
Micro$loth Lookout....
{applause}
Starting with "Let's invent top-posting" and moving to its virus-spreading abilities; Lookout has never met a standard, either hard [written/RFC] or not [consensus] that it could not wound/kill.
Further, it damages the thinking of its users almost as well as drug dealers wares -- be that crack or this week's over-hyped anti-depress^H^H^H mood-fixer. It's the Newspeak of the current era.
