I find the operation of OE very cumbersome and slow. I also can't figure
out how to file my messages, how to retrieve a deleted message, etc. In
general, I don't like it. I started with Eudora and that is what I am used
to. I guess that is the reason I don't like the others. I never have been
one for changing things.
