Maybe so, but at the moment the archive's "search" function is broken
and this is a busy enough list that manually scanning all the messages
from "three or four months ago" is impractical.

Perhaps someone else is willing to sharing the secret ritual with me? 

And is the problem with adding to the menu items related to this drawer
issue?

And how 'bout window manager configuration?  At the moment only MB2 on
the desktop background gives me a pop-up menu.  Is it possible to create
menus for MB1 and MB3? If so, where is this done? I'm accustomed to
plain text *rc files for doing this, but FC1 seems to rely heavily on
XML config files, nor do I see any obvious place to configure any of
this type of thing.

TIA for any useful responses...
