If I don't want Outlook Express, Mozilla Mail&News and Mozilla Thunderbird, what else *Open Source* e-mail clients can I choose in Windows?

If it was a Pi calculator, or a game (in which a miniscule difference in per-frame loop time makes a huge difference in frame rate) I could see the point, but this is just silly

For some people, work /= meetings.

work = work / meetings ???

Thus the amount of work you do is inversely proportional to the number of meetings you have ... OK, I'll agree with that!
