Really? They can't even show replies to my messages. Take this
piece of junk I am using right now called Thunderbird.
Unfortunately MS never developed OE for Linux yet.

Nor will they ever. MS is a publisher of closed source programs.
When they stop work on a program, it is over for that program.
Permanently. You are saying that you can't run Windows XP in a
Linux VM? That will certainly allow you to have access to your
beloved MSOE! :/

Emulators and virtual machines slows you down. Thus I have no use for
such things. Multiple computers beats both every time. ;-)

Say do you use virtual machines?

No. I just know when an application is less than worthy, and pick a
better app. 40tude Dialog runs just fine under Windows 7. Just import
all the files from the old folder structure to the new. Don't even
have to run the installer. All past messages are still available.

An application without an installer is worthless if the program is
worthless to begin with. And any newsreader without a reply to my posts
is totally worthless as far as I am concern. As what good is it? This is
a gold mine for both newbies and pros alike.

I have a hard time believing all of the world's programmers are just too
stupid to add this feature. As *only* Microsoft has it. As what is wrong
with the rest of them? Are they just stupid or what? How in the world
can you code a newsreader without this nifty feature? It is so simple to
code, yet they stupidly just leave it out. How do you explain why they
are so dumb?
