Couldn't agree more.  Every release just keeps getting better - type 
ahead find is quite useful and just one of the many things in Mozilla - 
and suprisingly faster.  Initially on Windows it was quite slow without 
quicklaunch but last time I downloaded a release it was a little faster. 
  Haven't tried 1.3a on Windows yet, how is it?

Your post intrigued me so I've turned it on.  Even if it knocks a few of 
these (mostly Korean - oh to be an NTLWorld account holder is such a 
joy...) spams on the head it'd be worth it.  How do you get it to send 
junk to a junk mail folder?  The options are there but they're greyed 
out so I don't know if it'll delete them or "junk folder" them.  I would 
like to keep an eye on it to see what it classifies as junk, so I've 
turned on the log but can't see how to control where it send junk mail to.

Is that all?  I get 100+ spam a day and my ISP does no filtering :(  I 
get around 300emails a day in total, so spam accounts for 1/3 of emails 
I recieve with the rest mostly mailing lists - gcc, gtkada, lfs, etc. 
That is quite a lot of spam!!! :(((((((((((

And that's just the prototype... <crosses fingers> :)
