This is obviously a matter of opinion, but if this is the way you feel
then you're making the best decision for you! In fact, your point about
Mail being good enough and FREE is one of the biggest arguments a person
has to overcome when buying ANY email program, much less PowerMail. "What
am I doing or what do I need that Mail doesn't do?" Most of the time,
Mail is probably just fine.

It's a similar issue with web browsers. Omniweb is an excellent browser
with many nice features, but can one justify paying for it when Safari is
included for free and Firefox, excellent in its own right, is a free download?

In the face of free stuff, I applaud companies like CTM and Omni Group
who plow ahead and hope people will find their hard work good enough to
be worth some extra money. It must be difficult to fight the freebies...

Lastly, the real reason I'm replying, don't throw away that SpamSieve
license. You might be able to transfer it over to SpamSieve for Mail. I
don't know how robust the junk filter is in Mail. I have a few clients
who use it and it seems to do well, however, SpamSieve does have a Mail
version so some people must find SpamSieve still a useful add-on. Just a
thought for you as you switch over!
