Depends on how the software sets things up.  It can be that software
doesn't set instructions in the config file unless/until the default is
changed.  Under such circumstances a change of default behaviour will
change things for people that have not altered the default.  That's
*always* bad.  If CM writes a setting at install, then yes, existing
users remain unaffected.

Frankly, I doubt it (although thee will be some more).  More and more
people are using a web browser for email, not an MUA.  In fact, the move
seems to be to use a browser for everything.

I disagree.  Although it's not me that needs convincing, but the dev
team.
