Hi all, I love PM, and I too have years of settings and filters that I would hate to have to migrate to some other program - So I would be willing to pay if PM can stay current.
Questions (that only CTM really knows the answers to) are: How big is the current userbase? 10k? 100k? 500k? At a $10/user yearly 'upkeep' fee, it could add up to something, but is it enough? Also, can PM attract new users via the App store? If so, prices in the app store are usually lower than software prices have been in the past, but if it gets good ratings and is priced right, PM could attract more users. Then again, what is the future of email? Is it soon to be nothing but HTML, or...? Hey, I love good old fashioned text, but I've been around for, let's just say, a good long while :) Gunnar -- Gunnar Madsen | Fall of Troy www.GunnarMadsen.com/main/falltroy.html "Sincere props on Fall Of Troy, which we have been fortunate to play here at WAER.
