Windose never has done properly.

Bull****.

Just shows you lack observation skills.

You've always have had to use different software

Thats not windows, thats just outlook.

Which is part of Windose.

Its an optional part of Office.
Its the one OSS keeps trying to copy (not very well).

If you really want to be pedantic there is *no* user software in linux.
You have to use some other OSS to do anything. You can use all the
*good* OSS software on windows if you want to. You give linux far too
much credit, it is a tiny bit of OSS.


of which there's lots around for free. Like Thunderbird.

And like OE.

compliant.

None compliant with what?
