netscape mail without launching navigator?

[rdlaing]

in netscape 7.2, how can you launch mail without it also launching the navigator browser?

we are using netscape mail with firefox and work, and when netscape navigator gets launched people here start using it, which creates problems. If we could get netscape mail to launch without navigator it would solve this.

thanks!

Can't you uninstall Netscape and install Thunderbird for the mail?

hi glc

if i was at home, yes, but old habits die hard and the staff here need to stick to netscape mail.

so the easiest solution is to be able to launch netscape mail without navigator also popping up.

kind of silly, yes, but we're talking about co-workers who can't figure out tabbed browsing.

I haven't played with Thunderbird much, but it seems to me the interface can be made to look almost identical to Netscape.
