I could not even ssh in from another computer. Surely that has to be a bug in something other than spruce. A userland program run by an unprivileged user should not freeze the whole machine? As for X email clients, there seem to be several new ones under development. Of the stable ones, netscape's doesn't seem too bad: at least it doesn't chew up the message formatting the way most windows software do. I've used it only briefly, though. Rahul.
