   There have been people posting to the Turnpike support newsgroup about    
   wanting to switch to Linux, but being unable to find a replacement for    
   Turnpike. Quite a few of them are reasonably experienced Linux users.    
   I've been using Linux for ten years now and I've been actively looking    
   for a Turnpike replacement for five years. I switched to Thunderbird for    
   a year or two but I've now switched back.
