   /me chuckles at "radical thinking".   
      
   It's not a big deal, I thought I was being helpful to others as well as the   
   future me that clones this repo again, as I'm sure I will.   
      
   I didn't agree with Mcbrine's comment on your (?) issue here   
   https://github.com/wmcbrine/MultiMail/pull/21   
   asserting that there's "no reason" for a .gitignore file in a repo. Of course   
   there are reasons (and I gave him one) and his response was a dismissive "Good   
   grief". Okay, that's fine. It's his repo and it's not a big a deal, but as he   
   stated, it's a pet peeve of his that he apparently doesn't like talking about.   
   Whatever.
