I don't support name calling, but you did do it first ("FC3 Sucks" is 
the equivelent of calling everyone on this list a bad name, as we're all 
involved in some manner with the development of FC3). That doesn't 
neccessarily make it okay for thomas to unleash the language like that, 
but you've done nothing but present problems that aren't related to 
Fedora CORE 3 as if they're bugs in the way FC3 is put together and 
functions. Gnome is NOT developed by the FC3 developers, it is an 
optional package that you may choose to install when you are installing 
FC3. VirtualPC is NOT developed by the FC3 developers. Java is NOT 
developed by the FC3 developers.

If you're having issues implementing certain software packages, as you 
have in prior posts as well as this one, then you could ask for help 
here. Understand though, that the FC3 developers, and FC3 as an install, 
are not responsible for watching everyone elses coding and making sure 
that ALL optional software packages run perfectly on every possible 
hardware configuration.

sorry for beating a dead horse guys, I just caught this thread before 
leaving work. I wish that other distros had a group as responsive as you 
guys.

<PS> thanks for the bits on procmail scripts guys, I'm a procmail/linux 
noob and that helped me with some filtering I've been trying to do
