Re: What about Outlook (less shitty)?
I'm still very happy with Pegasus Mail and I get happier ever time I have to set up an Outlook installation

I do that frequently with PowerBASIC :)

> f you need to do gigs on a mobile, then you are a far bigger loser than the money it costs.
In many parts of the world , including mine, mobile data is the only internet access that the vast majority of the population has access to.
In fact it's the only internet access that many businesses have as well.
(Guess ththat makes me a loser.)
"and immediately realized they had stumbled on something unique when they looked closer."
Just how did they determine that it was "one of a kind" in the entire Universe?
"Now, the team is on a lookout to find more of these newborn star streaks in space."
If it's unique, there's no point in looking for more.
It's just a set of Registry values in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\<ZOne name>
The full zone info is stored in a 44 byte TZI structure in each zone's entry
The problem is that Chile doesn't have its own zone entry, it is considered to be under "Pacific SA Standard Time."
It's probably time that MS created a separate Zone entry for Chile considering the number of times they have changed. That's easy enough to roll out with the next update, but every machine in Chile would need to have it's regional settings changed to the new zone.
Don't worry about the lizard people. They've already answered that question:

Could this unleash the lizard people that inhabit the inner sphere?
How do we know they did not already drill up using this technology and are already amongst us?

Not in the largest market (PNG). They'll just switch back to Telikom as many former Digicel subscribers have done over the last year or two.
As an aside, the fact that Digicel currently uses Huawei equipment is going to make it an expensive exercise giving the Aus antipathy to it.
> " NASA's Deep Space Atomic Clock loses one second every 10 million years, as proven in controlled tests on Earth."
Proven? You mean it's been running for 10 million years? It will still be running in 5 million years time and will have lost 1/2 a second?
I suspect they mean "lost time at a rate ot one second per 10 million years over a trial period" which is a very different matter..
In Pegasus Mail:
Options - Sending Mail - Checkbox 'Suppress BCC listings when sending mail" should be checked!
To quote David Harris:
"Suppress BCC field listings in outgoing mail BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) is a useful, but poorly-standardized feature. There are at least four ways a BCC field could be written into a message:
It could be omitted altogether
It could be present, but contain no addresses at all
It could contain only each individual recipient's address
It could contain the addresses of all people receiving the BCC
All of these methods have adherents and detractors. By default, Pegasus Mail lists all the BCC recipients in the BCC field of mail it sends: if you would prefer that no addresses were shown in the field, then check this control. When this option is turned on, the BCC field will simply contain the text "(Suppressed)", without any addresses."
