eh? Thanks, but no thanks. I'm running on a Class C internal network where I live, with a direct backend into the ms exchange server (yes the gentleman where I live runs his own ISP, Microsoft based without a single touch of linux as he thinks it's a pile of shit and a fad - oh and he does have 20 years or so of experience in the IT industry). Therefore I do not have a pop3 or imap account to set up mutt, evolution etc. At the moment i'm using the ms exchange net feature (ie retrieval of email by logging on via http to my exchange account), which saves me having to reboot into ms windows to check my email. I do not intend to change the way my mail works, nor should I have to. I think i'll just keep my mouth shut from now on and read teh posts and that's it. I'm to the point where i'm seroiusly considering formatting it and just make it all ms windows again. Thanks kde - you've really turned me off. Oh and for those that bitch about me not having the "correct" line in my sources.list I actually did try that as well, with the same dependency fuckups. I'm beyond caring now.

I have no idea what it is but please try to use a normal mail program. >From your previous posting, I assume you use gnome, so maybe balsa or even mutt or anything like this (even mozilla or old netscape 4.7x) are not out of reach to you. if you cannot get around this "Internet Mail Service", please write them a mail to implement the use of the "References:" and "In-Reply-To:" headers when replaying to mails.
