[P1] spam mail

[Angus Wallace]

Hey all,

I've never used OE myself, but from what I've heard, it's one of the 
least secure mail clients. Isn't it OE that's primarily responsible for 
the massive virus circulation? Why use it at all - does it have any 
virtues? (if you use it only because it's free, then there are many 
other free mail clients...)

I realise this sounds like an anti Micro$oft rant (and it is ;-), but 
isn't part of the point of using Mac that one gets away from M$?

cheers,
-Angus
