I notice that even you, who got me into this mess, doesn't know where
the missing OS/2 versions are and doesn't know where the mail filtering
documentation is. And you expect me to straighten it out for you?

I make a contribution right now and I've made many contributions in the
past. Shifting my time away from the SCOUG server and away from the
major OS/2 project I'm trying to put together makes no sense at all.
Why don't *you* volunteer?

FWIW, I criticized two things. One is the lack of documentation. The
other is the "I know where it is but I'm not telling" attitude I'm
getting when I ask questions. I offered to test the various Mozilla
versions (your claim of a few seconds for each test is ridiculous) and
if you ever find out where the missing ones are please let me know.
