I would say "yup", but you might get offended.

Well, I can't tell you, since to use rmail I would have to use emacs, and that
might make my head explode. No, I can't get the energy up for a flame-war on a
Monday morning. I actually learned emacs when I first started on Unix. Then I
took a programming course, and the professor made us all learn vi, because
starting up 300 emacsen on the school computers would have crashed the system.

the system!") So I'm not quite as vehemently against it as some.

of your message in my mailbox...

p.s. now that I've got mutt, I can even use ispell! Too bad I'm too lazy to do
so.
