I'm getting images of an old cassette tape for the logo as well. That could look great I think, thanks so much! :D @rob Ooh that’s good thanks, I like that suggestion.

In the end I went to bed and when I checked on Sunday afternoon the site had been updated. Perhaps the website isn't the first thing to be updated and I understand that, it's the first place people will look though, that's all I was saying. This is not a criticism or a complaint of any sort so I hope people don't take it as that, I was just passing comment. A few hours is neither here nor there IMO :) @Mike Thanks for the information, I was told by a few people the release was scheduled for 2300 as the day went on and I kept checking the Debian.org website after 2300 on Saturday but didn’t see any changes, even after midnight.

Perhaps a tour of mail clients is in order for comparison, could make a good article too. I did wonder if Debian's release was done on Californian time but since I know a lot of the developers are European and the DPL lives in the UK, I expected it to be at an earlier time. It's not a problem, after months of waiting a few hours hardly makes a difference just thought it was worth a mention :) @mjjzf I haven’t tried Claws yet no but a few people have told me it’s good.
