Heh, heh, heh...  You're preaching to the choir!  I agree.

But!  If I can't insert pictures in the middle of a message, and put
little moving cuties in my sig line, and make the text different colors
and sizes, then I can't be part of the Windows crowd!  They look down on
me and make fun of me!

However, when they see Evolution can do all they can, and have instantly
selectable sig lines, for any accounts, they want to use Evolution!

Still can't get used to top posting though.

My apologies to the list.
