A mix of upper/lowercase doesn't matter?

Thanks for the info.  5D support wouldn't be make sense if could be just *any*
text.  It has to be something that the system that one is connecting to is
looking for.  Understood.

For my messaging purposes, it looks like nntp via Thunderbird is still the
winner in this game.  I like the Tags, Marks, and a work-around for a Hold to
be a simple Save (and just sits in Drafts), the better quoting mechanisms, to
name the main things.  To [1] Watch (a thread) and [2] Kill (a thread) are
*really* handy to [1] highlight an interesting topic, or [2] skip over messages
 in certain echoes that tend to veer off into off-topic land.

I will have to see what all the buzz is about with OpenXP.

--- Thunderbird 2.0.0.24 (Windows/20100228)
 * Origin: - nntp://rbb.fidonet.fi - Lake Ylo - Finland - (2:221/360)
