Declude has always been lacking by not providing any hold review mechanism. However, when Declude Junkmail Pro was $500 one-time, plus a small yearly service contract it was hard to quibble about short comings. Now they are retailing Declude as at prices up to $1750 per year. If they expect to be able to justify such price increases, they need to provide additional functionality which rounds out the feature set of the product, including spam review / user retrieval of held messages.

As more people such as yourself demand an all-inclusive-packaged-neat product the owners of Declude are doing their best to bend to your desires. By the history of how the Declude line of products were originally created and then developed through time, it is taking a lot of time and effort to "convert" them from the products we have come to love and use into the pretty package people like you are demanding. In my opinion, and the opinion of many others which I am sure is the majority is that Declude is indeed fully functional for what it does. > Providing a means to hold email, without a means to identify email held in > error, is only half of a solution.

Therefore, viewing a message is viewing a message is viewing a message. A question about privacy does not care about how it is viewed but about if it is viewed.
