Even those who use a popular mail client will often want to alter the exact command line used to invoke that program, especially for specific purposes like reporting a bug. > I think realistically we're talking about roughly a dozen different > mail clients (surely not thousands) which should cover 99% of all > users needs. I don't see a problem here. Many of which have dozens of options, resulting in limitless command-line configurations. Allowing the users to select a pre-defined command line from a limited set of specific, popular MUAs is great. Not allowing them to configure that command line for their specific purpose is the limitation being discussed. -- \ "Any sufficiently advanced bug is indistinguishable from a | `\ feature." -- Rich Kulawiec | _o__) | Ben Finney -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
