Yes, you did.  I not sure that's what you meant though...

So now it isn't just what affects people, it's what affects people AND
affects them badly enough to need fixing AND is cheap for Ipswitch?
Somewhere along the way, that crosses into "not my problem" territory.

You also said (and I apologize for quoting out-of-order):

Actually, no.  I've got a service contract, so I already paid for the fixes.

The point you keep missing is that many of the fixes (arguably all the ones
I listed, IMHO) finally deliver things that were promised by IMail all
along, and people paid for them in 7.0x - they're not free, any more than
the upgrade to 7.1 under a service contract is free.

By putting out that list, I had hoped to see a discussion of what's
important to -other- people.  Apparently there's only one that matters to
you (FWIW x-rcpt-to doesn't matter to me) and I'm glad it delivers what
other people wanted, and it should be made available in 7.08.  The s:s log
bug certainly was a FAQ, but it wasn't really important to anyone?  A server
locking onto a socket forever doesn't matter?  Ignoring MX priority isn't
critical to anyone?  Nobody cares how you get to October?  (The die-hard
Cubs fan in me doesn't know what October is either...)
