Yes, I am aware of this. However, the first version of the list will only
process mail immediately. This allows us to get the FusionMail code ready
for release sooner. I know this is a trade-off but I think that the new
FusionMail has a lot more to offer than the older versions and it is prudent
that it be released as soon as possible.

Howie
