Excellent, Thanks for your great work.

Since you're working on the printing stuff, I figured you might be the 
best one to know about this. I was just printing something in GNUMail 
this morning and clicked the 'preview' button which immediately tried 
to launch gv (GhostView) which was not installed on my machine. This 
caused an invalid arument exception since gv couldn't be run. This 
should probably not be hardcoded to 'gv' nor should we be relying on 
this external dependency. Do you have any suggestions on a cleaner 
method of previewing?

Cheers,
Alex

P.S. Also I noticed that the gorm file has some hardcoded colors in 
the background of text areas, which causes things to look a bit ugly 
if you have nonstandard colors chosen.
