hmm. tb message filters are pretty powerful and cover most of my needs (i'd love the ability to set arbitrary font & background colours as targets for filters;) ) - what functionality exactly do you miss in tb ?
umm. there is no user.js neither in profile or thunderbird directory. creating user.js in a profile dir and adding that line doesn't help. maybe it is hidden in some jar/xpm/whatever file (like mozilla had most configurable files) ?
i believe he was talking about bunch of separate windows that pop up in taskbar (and application switching list) for every single thing you open. although i use gimp on linux and usually work with it on a separate desktop, i still think single global window would be more convinient.
and, of course, it should be an option, so that user can choose whichever he likes the best.
being an ignorant ass and telling that everybody who dislikes current behavious surely will not help to increase gimp's user base. which is needed, isn't it ?
actually, this feature (particulary threading by sender) was one thing that some users were missing when they were migrated to mizlla recently. i just hope moz 1.8 will have it, too:)
1. it's crossplatform, so i can easily migrate my data if i have a need 2. it stores mail in plaintext, so recovering from a problem is relatively easy (i've tried to recover mbx, dbx, pst etc files for some users a few years ago - huh...) this also helps a lot to pass spam to spamassassin 3. it's rules system beats the hell out of outlook [express] (at least last time i used outlook;) ) 4. it has threading. reading lists without threading - those outlook users must be sick:) (though i suppose it probably is already implemented by ms) 5. it's fast 6. it has an ability to skip opening remote images/objects - this helps to reduce spam sent to my mailbox 7. it has an ability to easily view source of the mail message 8. it doesn a lot better job with several pop accounts and several identities (mail identities, that is:) )
there probably are more things, these are just first i can remember.
i found this one :

there, among other possible solutions, is mentioned switching to other broswers - but i don't see any one from those mentioned in washington post article. anybody from washington post ?:)
if you had a choice - either buy some crappy p100/32 _and_ a windows licence OR that your shiny new XXGhz - without windows - which one would you choose ?
of course, pirating could help you have both, but it's not that fun when somebody actually takes away your computer and you have to pay fine;)
don't dismiss price as insignificant factor just because you can easily afford buying windows. not everybody can - and there are people who prefer spending that money on something more useful.
yep. some html basics - and probably then php. i'm far from being a coder, but php is one of the languages where you can create complicated things... and also extremly simple ones:)
also, qbasic could do the trick - although they say it makes you code bad:)
they will have to determine if it was a generic term in it. although it still isn't good for ms it's not like "hey, bars have windows, so it's a generic term" - more like "a. smit, 1984. a computerized windowing system is one that has windows." or something:)
and - how ?
isn't this alittle bit too much ? thunderbird has the ability to import mails from oe (also addressbook & settings).
ok, firefox has this about:config. has thunderbird something similar ? some hidden creepy configuration parameters =)

doesn't ctrl+u do what you want ? didn't understand the second part, though ;)

didn't try upgrading, simply replced program directory leaving data directory intact - no problem :)

geez. linux is so user-unfriendly. why can't those geeks learn from micr... oh. damn.

could anybody point to advisory itself that recommends other browsers ? that could be quite serious argument
