It is unfortunate for those who use Windows -- but then, using Windows
is itself a much greater misfortune.
If people implement Windows support in GNU Movemail, we will accept
that code following our usual practices. But if someone asks me
whether to implement Windows support in GNU Movemail, or write something
that makes the GNU system better, we will say that the latter is what
advances our cause.
