Swiss Army knife apps are great--to a point. News apps do not necessasrily
contain good mail-handling capabilities. The WinQVT thingy is probably
the best all-around set of tools, but I'd opt for different apps for
the different functions. EUDORA for email is hard to beat, especially
in the commercial version. For news by itself, well, that's another
religious issue. Take a look at the Trumpet news reader (WT_WSK),
for one.
