I’ve been using thunderbird for email for a while now (since before I converted to the cult), and I like it for the most part. I haven’t tried Mail.app, but that’s mostly because I was pretty happy with t-bird and just haven’t bothered.
One thing that annoys me though is that I have to go rooting arround in the menus to fcc (file carbon copy). Going to “Options”, “Send a copy to”, “this account”, etc.. annoying.
I would like to have a button in my write-message window that at least skips past the first two menu options and opens a pull down menu starting at accounts.
Anyone?
2/1/06: Update: Dave found one. Fcc extension for Thunderbird, even 1.5 compatable. Very feature rich.
As I sit here rocking my 4 week old daughter to sleep. I have a lot of time to think.
Most people who know me unfortunately think me shallow at best, with maybe pompous coming in a close second. They’re probably right, unfortunately. I never really learned how to interact with other people well.
And yet, as i’m sitting here rocking this sweet girl to sleep and i’m thinking of my my mom, who gave up everything for my sister and I. Raising us was not easy, and doing so just above the poverty line made it harder.
I’m mindful of Sarah Mclachlan’s song, Answer-
If it takes my whole life
I won’t break, I won’t bend.
It’ll all be worth it
Worth it in the end
And I think two two things:
First, my mother had enough love to do that. That is a hell of a commitment. And I love her for it and hope to live up to her example.
And second, god willing, I hope like hell I’m a good enough person to be able to do that myself. Some days I’m not sure at all, and I think that’s even more frightening than the idea of failing my daughter.
