You know, I don't really know why I didn't think about that.  I had
moved away from Thunderbird at one point because it couldn't handle the
insane amount of messages that I was getting at the time, though as of
now that shouldn't be a problem as I have significantly dropped my
mailing list memberships.  The only thing is that Mozilla Calendar
stinks yet.

Oh, why can't there just be perfect software?!  :-P
