I wonder why people think TB is so much better
than OE. It was designed to be a replacement. OE
lacks some things. Most notably, I can't block remote
images. (That doesn't matter for me, but I help some
people who want to enable HTML email.)

On the other hand, I can't read the source in TB
unless I save the file out. I have to set outgoing
servers in a different place from incoming servers,
which can be very confusing for inexpreienced
people. TB is extremely pushy about wanting me to
use their halfwit "wizard" to set up my accounts...

There are various small problems with each, but
essentially they're the same thing.
