And the reason I said so, Karel, is even if you now are sharing your
knowledge of PM 3.x having known bugs with stuck messages, is that you
have been making blanket suggestions, like Scott also have, that
upgrading is always good, *even* if you have big unacceptable problem
that will not be solved with the new version. I disagree with that
attitude as it's not constructive. I'm sorry, but that is the way I feel.

Effectively you have been suggesting that I give CTM $29 for an app that
is not what I want (even if I first thought so. I find this an
unacceptable way of getting anywhere, because it's not going to get me
where I want to be. 

Especially so, as CTM seem to not give one iota of my problems or have
any suggestions at all on what to do get past them. How hard is it to
send an automated response on direct messages to support and show the
customer that you will be there, if not now then at least in one week or so?

It's not the money, it is the principle. I will never support a company
that seem to just not care. What are CTM doing? Are they on vacation or
taking a course? Why can't they say *that* then? 
I'm sorry, of course you don't know. I'm just venting here. My apologies.

Please try to understand though, that I *will* upgrade to 4.1.x WHEN and
only when CTM have acknowledged, in private or whatever, that they will
address the 2 most serious issues I have with either more appropriate
information (importing prob) or with codechanges (multithreading prob) in
the foreseeable future, that only all can benefit from.

As I see it, what CTM should do in both cases are:

Acknowledge, in private at least, that there is a problem and state that
they will fix it or they will not or they are undecided. Alternatively
explain why there isn't a problem and why I'm mistaken. 

But this they want. They shut up as clams and do not even autorespond.
This makes sense to anyone? 

They were just like this 2 years ago when I inguired of what benefits PM
could have over Emailer, flatly refused to say anything on the matter, so
maybe I shouldn't be surprised. but you know, one reads a few positive
reviews and thinks that one should check it out again.....Bummer.
