I agree 100 percent but alas the inability to allow unattended downloading of 
e-mails makes it unusable for me.  That and the fact I had several 
unexplained crashes of K-mail which went completely away once I disabled 
K-wallet.  See, for me, there is little point in having the mailer 
periodically check for new messages if I have to be at the computer to give a 
password anyway!  My computer is supposed to make things easier and save ME 
time with my chores in the process, not become an added chore!  The main 
point with Linux in the first place was the ability to configure the OS in 
the manner it worked best for you, ...not forced to use it in the way 
dictated by companies looking only to squeeze more money out of me like 
MickySoft is guilty of.  I, in fact, tend to rebel against arrogance!  Its my 
money and I demand the right to spend what of it the government doesn't take 
away from me in the manner I desire.
