Thanks. I was hoping for a GUI, which I think leaves pine out. Right?

I've tried balsa, mozilla, evolution, and kmail in the last week to see
if I could find a graphical MUA that handles the digest well. I also
have thunderbird installed, but it did not handle gtk2 all that well - I
could live with that if it did what I needed, maybe I'll take another
look. So far, no joy, however.

I wish I had a memory good enough that I could remember to edit the
subject line every time, but it is just not the case.
