Does any of these look like Outlook ? No. Is that ALL you care about, then you're right. Most of them are better *mail clients* - my favurite is Tkrat, which is FAR easier to use than Outlook, and far more powerful.
If you feel that using Tkrat means you get away with "less" than when you use Outlook, then perhaps you care more about what your client LOOK like, and less what it can do.
Since Mozilla has had the best CSS 1 and 2 support among the currently available browsers for quite a few versions... well, we all know why you can't get it to work, don't we ?
In Norway you can be prosecuted - ie. held responsible for your own actions in a court of law - when you are 14. You are not legally an adult until you are 18.
Oddly enough, this is what makes *me* mad about a whole lot of Python programmers: they have learned to program with it, or switched to it, and are now viciously attacking other languages - and in Particular Perl.
The old saying that "A good programmer can write Fortran in any language" still holds - if you have learned the foundamental skills, it really doesn't matter all that much for your work what language you choose. It may, on the other hand, matter for the efficiency of the final product.
THE most voiced complain about Perl is that "Perl code is hard to maintain" or "Perl code is impossible to read!"
If these are arguments anyone wish to use on Perl, then - for *ONCE* - ask yourself why you would want to write unreadable or unmaintainable Perl code. If your answer to that would be "I wouldn't, but Perl forces me to!"... then I suggest you *go back* and learn the skill of programming.
You can write Fortran in any language - you can mess up Perl just as well as you can mess up Python.
Again and again it seems to *me* that people are not trying to objectively review the differences between the languages - and the Python crowd is just as bad as you claim the Perl people to be.

PS: Yes, I've tried Python. I didn't like it.
