Then you are a fool both because you are commenting on an application =
you haven't seen and because you are wrong about APOP. First, APOP is = not a
protocol let alone a competing one. It's a single feature of POP3 = and an
obsolete one to boot superceeded by SASL =
(http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2222.txt, = http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1734.txt).
It also is supported by some = Microsoft products such as the POP3 server in
Windows Server 2003. = There are others. You are correct that Windows Mail,
like OE before it, = doesn't support APOP but it is not for the reason you
claim.

I haven't even seen Windows Mail, but I can tell you with 100% =
certainty
that they don't support a standard protocol like APOP because this is
somehow seen as a competing protocol.
