Not necessarily. When using cab.ovl for Mintnet I can't get email to work,
also authentication is not working properly (at least with my nt-server 
(intranet). Perhabs this is a Problem with my hades060. Some gif-s are not
downloaded completely (white stripes inside of them) and I can't use the
ovl with ssl compiled in.

PS: If somebody would tell me how I could get email to work then I would
perhabs change to the mintnet-ovl. But there is another reason: Gluestik
is a fine piece of software and very useful for e.g. to run newsie with it.
It would be very bad if there is a bug in gluestik.
