Well.. it's like they say: you don't know what you're missing.

Before I discovered OpenXP, I was pretty sure that no one could  
convince me to use anything else other than Winpoint, or  
Apoint, or the nntp method from bbses that offer JamNNTP.

OpenXP is designed for the message connoisseur.  ;)

I wanted to be able to search entire collection of messages  
when I needed to, and be able to mark a message that I may like  
to reply to MUCH later.  That is simply not possible with QWK.

You can even tweak things like the font that you might prefer -  
within the limits of the OS that is.

OpenXP is available for Linux too with either /32 or /64  
versions.
