Exactly. :-)

Also, the canonical site for Windows port (for now) is:

    http://p4.elixus.org/dist/

We're on 3.0.6 right now.

Also, if you use /index.html (instead of /Edit/ or /Work/), then you
get the ClassicUI instead of the new TabbedUI.

Exchange servers do offer a SMTP service, which you can point RT to.

Eventually, I hope to put together a more robust bin/rt-pop3gate to
address the incoming mail problem, but nobody is paying me to do that
right now. :-)

Are there any other deviations you think that I should reflect in
the documentation?
