You can not purchase anything to do with Imail at this point. Nothing. I currently have 8.0 because my SA ran out. I was going to renew it next month, heck I'll do it today. All I want right now is 8.1 and any bug fixes to it for the next 12 months. And they can have my $500 for that. That doesn't seem unreasonable. That way at least I have time to look for something else and make an informed decision. I don't care if they just have a firesale on SAs for the next 2 weeks, or whatever, they just should have been very clear as to what WAS going to happen, or have provided a grace period now that it has.
Anyone stuck in this situation must call Ipswitch ASAP.

Has anyone had a chance to verify this with Ipswich yet? If we could get another year of support for Imail 8.x it might be worth it to stay with Imail for another year, but if we won't have any support from Ipswich I think it would be prudent to look at another product. Even with the discount's for existing customers $12,000 to upgrade 2 imail servers just because Imail is forcing us to doesn't make much sense. What about next year, I would almost bet that the service contract renewals will be higher than they were with regular Imail??

Ok, I think I missed something here. What is everyone talking about here, is Imail prohibiting add on's such as declude in future versions (I sure hope not), is declude launching a new version for another platform? The panic level just went up with those last few emails. Jim ----- Original Message ----- From: "R.
