:( I guess Crosspoint/OpenXP was focused on pure text comms then, and
avoided incorporating BBS-specific eye-candy.
Given how OXP's ">" quoting colour system works, any ansi-color codes
thrown in would probably mess all that up anyway.
It would be cool to have a Thunderbird plugin that could render ansi
colour codes and pipe codes in select message groups though.
