This sort of begs the question - of the people who use text email
readers, how many are older, more experienced Linux users? (in other
words, if the rest of us bent a bit to accommodate them, perhaps they
would be more motivated to provide better answers). It sounds like at
least a few are stuck with text email readers on their systems.

I gather that less than 50% of users (overall) in the US have high-speed
access (which does seem unfortunate given the penetration of high-speed
access in other industrialized countries).

Thanks,
Mike
