Hi Ken,
I in no way meant any bad feelings towards you. As I mentioned, I only
came into this late in the game, so I only know what I see and hear, and
from what people were saying, it sounds like they were screwed over.
Doesn't mean they really were ;-)
Anyway, you really don't have to convince me or sway me over to your side.
Besides deploying vpopmail, I haven't spent much time actually developing
anything on it. So the people that would need convincing are the
developers themselves.
I'm just here to try and help out a bit here and there, and try and make
vpopmail a better product. Plain and simple :-)
Sincerely,
Jason
