   What's NOT to like?  I am still totally impressed how your simple     
   recommendation (is it 2 years ago now?) steered me off my then     
   chiselled-in-stone decision to stick with a Windows-based Apoint     
   or Winpoint.  OpenXP's text based system is truly ideal for     
   messaging.

   Ah.. excellent.  For the most part, messages are pretty short so     
   a search for anything hasn't been necessary.  But I can see it     
   handy when reading a long multiple-screen newsletter.  Searching     
   backwards in the same message for the same string is a fine     
   convenience.
