Re: Default Mail / 5 Minute Boot-up

O.K., Jim, but which ones are absolutely essential, and which ones can wait?
When I go to a couple of web sites that tell you what programs can be
removed and which ones can't, not very many programs say that you can remove
them. Can you help me, please? Thanks.
