I spent a short period of my life in a corporate environment. I may have lost what's left of my sparse sanity had I been forced to use Outlook. So I actually managed to get fetchmail to talk to their Exchange server (IMAP). Needless to say, most company mails were HTML (few people even knew that, and I was in the computer tech department!). My HTML viewer was html2text. Most probably immune to the vulnerability we're talking about, although I wouldn't bet my farm [1] on it :-) Cheers [1] that one I don't have :-) - -- tomás -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAls2LlAACgkQBcgs9XrR2kZnbgCeINm7ixI/pD3Bh8wP8p9XRHE5 kvEAnR1eEaAx0ZGtvHG+AyehlWaMv4DJ =a8w4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
