By all means stick around. However, it might be worth learning some
basic netiquette. Avoid top posting. Yes, this is possible even from
Outlook or Yahoo. Also, avoid using MS dumbquotes, which look crap
on many non-Windows platforms (see your quoted "newbie" above). Try
to turn off HTML posting as well.

There's no such thing as an approved mail client around here -- just
approved posting formats. If you can get your mail into shape using
a given client, then no one will care what you use.
