No, I don't. For me it's not been worth keeping one, but if email is
going to be the world-beating email library, it might be worth keeping
one. I mean, just how many people would fall in love with Mailman if
there were a "select your broken MUA here" in the personal user's
page, and selecting actually got you a personalized message that
didn't display Sender in the From field in Outlook Express? :-)
