I note that the portage system apparently doesn't specifically think too highly of Netscape...
(And when we get back to the (ugh, yuck) 4.x version, neither do I, but N7.2 _is_ in there, if I can figure out how to get my Athlon-XP to download the silly thing...!! And yes, I do know about ~x86, now I gotta RTFM about "-*"...)
Of course, if Mozilla/Firefox works as you said you think it does, then I don't need the Netscape stuff after all, now do I?
Thanks again!, Robert.

Can Mozilla SHARE the Win/Netscape bookmarks, history, eddress-book, **and** local accumulated-mail folders with my Win/Netscape ?
I understand that the answer is "yes", although I have not done it. I think the answer would be the same for thunderbird/firefox.
I have the same requirement with email, but solve it with imap. In other words I have a server with all my mail stored on it. I can access it with any client from any computer from any OS, including over the web via squirrelmail. I don't really know any mail clients that do not do imap. That, IMHO is the answer to accessing mail from different OSes, although it may not suit people who don't want or cannot afford another computer in their house/place of work.
(I sometimes must spend *many* hours in Win to run tools and applications to make money with. These programs (mostly related to embedded tiny processors) are win-only, and have no
linux-equivalents, and won't even run under Win4Lin since w4l9x basically does not
support 'random' USB devices like embedded debuggers.)
Feel free to jump in and educate me, Nick, folks!
