   On my Laptop I use Thunderbird, which is now run separately from Mozilla,   
   if that rings any bells..   
      
   MP>That said, the first time or two it happened, I did wonder about it!  :D   
      
   At times it can be a little annoying when you simply mention the word   
   Attachment and it pops up a window asking you to attach it. That one   
   above is the first time it came in handy. I think I must have ignored   
   the request without telling it to cancel it when I first typed the word   
   but then it caught me again when I went to send the message.   
      
   But yes, this is more passive, although one might wonder what other   
   words it watches for and reports back to the Mother Ship..    B)   
      
   Kidding.. I really like Thunderbird. It is so much nicer to work   
   with than the Online eMail systems, and I can have it check several   
   accounts at the same time, and make replies from those accounts.   
      
   I think it even works with gMail now, although my older version didn't.   
   (And I think gMail tries to block remote access like that.)   
   I tend to not update programs that are working well without a really   
   good reason. Too often the improvements mess them up..
