Challenge accepted.
Share with us why you feel that LoF != security.
That's not what I was making my statement about, I was talking about mutt having lack of features. If one is inclined to respond to a statement with another statement that not only is wrong, but grossly inaccurate, I don't feel it's inappropiate to call them on such. In addition, I never said that LoF != security, he did. Stop trying to be so quick to write a post that you think is going to put me on the spot and practice some reading comprehension. Maybe you should use a MUA that uses threads, like mutt. It'll help you keep track of these things.
Logically and statistically(sp)the more lines of code in a program, the greater the chance of a bug. And you can't add features to a program without adding code( if anyone has proven me wrong on this i would love to talk to you about it ;) ). Thus by adding features to a program you are adding in bugs(although we try otherwise). What is wrong with this logic???
Nothing expect that that is not what he said. He said that a "lack of features != security. Your statement, which is indeed quite logical, only argues the point opposite Johnathan's. What you are arguing is that a lack of features enchances security. lack of features = security, not lack of features != security. Again, practice some reading comprehension. I apologize to Johnathan for the curtness of my post, I had a long day and that was the first email I saw when I got home. Next time, if you want to defend someone else's arguments by daring someone to prove otherwise, don't let the inital argument that you launch be the direct opposite of the argument that you are defending.
