We won't test, but so far the uuid has been the only change we actually make, and then we run growlmail for 2 weeks to test. There is a minor risk here, since everything that GrowlMail does inherently isn't using a documented API. Meaning, that GrowlMail could make a call to something that changed names and now it performs a different action. I don't expect this, but it's still there. We could continue to play this game of back and forth updating, but it's rather tiresome. Apple did this because some bad plugins were actually crashing Mail. However, they could have created a public API instead and avoided all of this mess. Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Growl Discuss" group.
