Re: GNUMail

[Andreas Schik]

Hi Jason,
if you plan to realize those things via plug-ins then I am for it. I would not 
like GNUMail to bloat up with los of functions that are only loosely related to 
e-mail. I want/need an e-mail-only client and GNUMail is exactly that.
Enhancements via plug-ins that can be installed or not are OK.
