The label "When Mail launches, show the Start Page in the message area" which can be found on the "Mail & Newsgroups" panel in the preferences does not have a dot after it, which most other labels above textfields has.

Could someone check in this trivial fix?
I have noticed multiple notations here. Robin/Jennifer, What is the standard here..? Do we need a period/dot at the end of the statement in the pref dialog panels..? Edit | Preferences | Mail & Newsgroups : I have noticed inconsistencies in the way statements (associated with checkboxes) have been ended. Can you tell us the correct format..? Thanks.
I think the style is NOT to include periods after checkbox text labels. For Edit|Preferences|Mail&Newsgroups, this would mean removing the period for the checkbox label "Use Netscape Mail as the default mail application." Jennifer - comments?
Robin is correct. For checkboxes or radio buttons with text that is one sentence/phrase, no period. But, if the text for a checkbox or radio button is more than one sentence/phrase, then you would use periods. "Use <productname> Mail as the default mail application" is correct.
Takign this one. Patch is trivial. Will check it in when the tree opens for regular business. Changing summary to reflect the standard format.
