Noted, and appreciated.

I had assured myself that I was going to settle with a GUI- 
based point system.  No one was going to convince me otherwise.  
Then upon a casual mention of OpenXP by someone, I took a look.  
Wow.  After exploring OpenXP for a bit, the GUI-based ones seem  
more tedious and with much less features.

And I looked at Multimail for a bit too.  It seemed far too  
limiting for me.  Managing/switching between different QWK  
files to search for a message or to remember where I saw one of  
interest got old for me fast.

OpenXP stores everything in a database much like a BBS itself.   
Searching, marking, holding, is very easy.

We all look for and expect different things.
