It does not matter how much it costs ipswitch, because when we bought imail
we bought a server with a set of features that were advertised to work.  It
cost us the consumers money and we never recieved what we expected.  Granted
some of the bugs may never effect most of the people on this list, but that
does not give ipswitch the right not to fix them, especially when something
is clearly stated in the manual as working and never worked.  I could care
less about the new features in 7.1, but I would like the product I purchased
to work as stated. If you sell a broken product, you have to fix it
regardless of whether or not the bugs affect people. As far as the "give it
to me free" part goes, I have seen many people on the list state that they
have a service contract and are due the upgrades but the still feel its
pretty rotten on ipswitch's part to treat their customer base like this.

<sigh>

I asked people to specifically mention bugs that AFFECT THEM.  If a bug
doesn't affect anyone (for example, someone at Ipswitch discovered it),
then it doesn't affect anyone.

You're just repeating the same mantra "Give it to me free!", without saying
what you need.

So far, there is only 1 bug fix in 7.1 that anyone has mentioned (actually,
several people mentioned it) that isn't fixed in 7.07, that they need
fixed.  Creating a 7.08 with that fix would probably cost Ipswitch very
little, while creating a 7.08 with everything you took from the 7.10
release notes would cost a lot.
