there's also M$ OE (ugh) for solaris.  if your work demands that you use
OE (for calendar stuff and so forth), this might be the best option.

i honestly don't see why so many people use OE - i think it's an
absolutely terrible MUA, and its default settings are inexcusably brain
damaged.

AFAICT, there's no way with OE to quote properly, and the default config
encourages people to top post.  i think real outlook can be configured
properly though.
