I don't generally recommend one, no. I use mutt, because I like it.

That'd be the newsgroup I don't read or post to.

No. It's a random sig. Most of mine are taken from song-lyrics. But not
this one.

oh, sure. i am computer illiterate, but i do know some things. i often cross
post into other C&C groups. and by leaving the newsgroups listed at the top
of my message alone, i cross post into the UK.misc. And i do that only so
you can read my message(s) since i assume you dont read
alt.games.command.and.conquer

You might care for the same reason as you'd care if you were playing your
music loud enough to piss off the people next door... ah, I see where this
analogy is going to break down.

well i didnt really mean it in a rude way
just that someone started the cross post into my group
and i was responding to the question
so why would i care if it got cross posted back
especially since UK.misc. is where all the posters (except me) are from
or at. or in. whatever
i just asked a question relevant to C&C

Why don't you just have a duel boot system, have XP as the main O/S and say
Windows ME or Windows 98 as a second bootable partition, you can use
Partition Magic to set this up, great for playing old games that XP won't
play,
