Guess you were. It took place December 12th, 2000.
"If you're not outraged, you haven't been paying attention."
Just as long as "H-C" doesn't screw with Compaq's excellent support structure. During my consultant days, I was once called out to a customer who had a brand-new H-P Netserver with a bad keyboard. I took the bad 'un, gave the customer a loaner and told him I'd have the keyboard replaced right away. It took nearly two MONTHS. Why the delay? Because H-P wouldn't honor the warranty unless/until it was submitted by an engineer who was certified on *that particular server*. Compaq never played that kind of shenanigans.
" Of course, most if not all of the free webmail services do add a line of spam to the top or bottom of all messages sent... "
That's why I use MyRealBox - it just might be the only one that doesn't.

That's easy. When Microsoft stops trying to assimilate or destroy all competition.
Not holding my breath, though.
I've had LOTS of experience with GroupWise, and haven't had any 'nightmares' to speak of. Challenges, yes, but just getting Win9x to run consistently is a challenge.
And you don't *have* to run the GroupWise client at all. Novell supports using the Outlook front end against a GroupWise message store, giving you the best of both worlds: the desktop interface that your users like, and a backend that won't make you old before your time.
Novell GroupWise. WAY more scalable, cheaper to install and maintain, excellent Web interface, *real* groupware functionality. No, you don't have to run it on a NetWare server.
Yeah, it's from Novell. Is that really a valid reason to discard it out of hand?
Has anyone considered TCO? Exchange ain't cheap
to maintain. If they want collaboration features
(i.e., "groupware"), Exchange is a poor player in that space as well.
Just ask the Exchange cheerleaders how they'll feel about being without email for 24 hours or more, when the next MS-vectored virus hits.
I think a much more poetic end for Mir would be to boost it into Solar orbit... or right out of the solar system if possible. Future generations will curse us for letting a priceless (to them) piece of spacefaring memorabilia just burn up.
I read somewhere that Netscape's 'What's Related' feature was a potential privacy violation, so I've always disabled it immediately upon installing the browser. But NS6 won't let you turn off this 'feature', except on a per-domain basis. So long, Netscape. I may finally grit my teeth and *buy* Opera.
I've had the same problem with 3C509s (got a boatload of 'em here) and my fix is to use the
3Com driver - even if it's older than the MS driver. Works every time for me, YMMV.

OK, Generalissimo George. Explain to us how your space-based missile defense, AKA "Son of Star Wars", will protect us from THIS kind of thing.
I never played Oregon Trail, but my nephew summed it up: "You meet interesting people, then watch them die." Accurate?

Apparently so. It happened December 12th, 2000.

www.myrealbox.com is pretty good. At least it doesn't insert unwanted ads into my outbound mail.

Silver lining department: Now we finally get to find out if there is such a thing as being TOO STUPID TO BE PRESIDENT.

Uhh, because it says in big block letters, "This is a satire..." ??? Could that be why?
