Indeed, I use Free Agent for News postings, and Outlook Express (albeit
version 4) for Email. Personal Choice. If I have emailed you you will see
that the headers show up OE4, while this post shows up Free Agent. If you
look *way* *way* back you might even find some of my emails and postings
made from Internet Mail and Internet News, precursors to Outlook Express.
Fascinating huh?

In fact, I'll refrain from posting the OE-bashing version in the middle of
this already pretty-hot arguement.
