We're looking for a very simple and easy to use MUA, so simple most of
you won't consider using it. One of the objectives is to reduce stress by
having the MUA never do anything the user doesn't understand or
expect. Another principle I'd impose is that it is better for the user
to type some command a bunch of times and have it respond very fast
than to type some regular expression or fill in some selection panel.
Hopefully it will include some simple editor to compose mail, but
maybe I can dig up some thing to do that elsewhere.

Non-UNIX platforms are OK, but it's got to work with the Internet and
Bitnet. 

Why don't you respond to me directly and I'll summerize the responses.

Many thanks,
