OK, I bit the bullet and did the upgrade in the middle of the day. All seens well. Even my IMail Client still works. I had thought it wasn't supposed to work with 8.2x.
 
Thanks for your help, and encouragement.

     Yes, confirmed.  Stop your services, run the imail8.22, launch the "smiley man", activate or trial, stop the smtp, replace the smtpprotocol.dll for the patch and start the smtp.

      Did it on two machines this morning...in the same nervous condition.

Thank you, Robbie, and Michael. That's what was making me uneasy. I had a vague memory of some concerns over activation when 8.2 was new.
 
I've downloaded 8.22 from the link in the KB article Tripp posted. It is named imail8.22.exe and is 23,639KB. The KB labels it an update, but I believe by the size it is a full install.
 
Can anyone confrm this for a nervous (paranoid) IMail admin?

     You can install 8.22 (and patch it) and select "Activate Later" when you launch "the smiley man".  Nothing (according to techsupport) is restricted...except that you have to have activated it within 30 days or it will shut down.
