I've already seen it and fixed it.  I've also added a popup menu to the
toolbar that lets you select which buttons you want visible.  I'll
diff against 1.0.0 and send it.

No bloat here - if GtkHTML is available, that is used.  If not,
then it will look for GtkXmHTML.  both can be disabled from the
configure script, so the code gets ifdef'ed out.

Netscape exports to LDIF files.  Similar in some respects to vcard
format.  Also was trying to get a reader for Spruce mailboxes, and
if I ever get those working, I'll take a shot at Pine as well.

I'll take a look, see if I can improve what I already have.
