I too have stayed at the 1.82 version while keeping my service contract up to date. I am not ambitious enough to work through all the 2.x and 3.x issues. A heart felt thank you goes out to those of you who are.

With the new licensing policy in 3.x, what happens when I decide not to renew the service agreement? Will all the Declude software I have stop working? Am I paying for it's usage only while I have a valid service agreement? It used to be that the service agreement allowed me major version upgrades when they were available without paying an additional fee. Am I now paying for a license to "use" the software?

Bottom line is we were told if the license server was offline we would not
be impacted.  It is seeming now that that statement was not true, though I
should withhold judgement until we hear exactly why this had an impact.
Very glad I've stuck with 1.82 at the moment, though we had a service
agreement that entitled us to upgrade to 3.x.

I would certainly like to know what will be done to the software licensing
to make sure this problem does not happen again.  Otherwise, since mail is
considered a critical system, Declude needs to staff 24/7 to address
problems as they arise.

True, very true. But like Andy or Darrell said, they should have done a test
by pulling the plug on their license server during the week when they were
watching it to see what would happen.

But of course, hind sight is always 20/20 and Monday morning quarterbacking
is highly overrated. ;-)>

Software and hardware breaks.  Nothing is bulletproof.  Some are just
better than others.
