Facebook and Skype and Plugins

[Michael Secord]

I agree there.  I still have to go through and reconfigure a few of my 
settings in Thunderbird in regards to HTML email.  I don't run into many 
recipients who can't see them, but in a mailing list type situation, it 
makes sense.

I actually have list emails filtered in my account I use for my phone. 
Saves on all the email I don't have to get right then and there.
