I'm delighted to know about them. I think it does help us work
together to know some things about one another's lives. I'm 78 years
old, and my own children and grandchild are all adults. Most of the
years that I worked for a living, my work was with young children, as
a teacher in an elementary school.

Well, we're so used to that kind of "puffery" among advertisers in the
U.S. that, for myself, I never make a decision based on an advertising
claim. I go by word-of-mouth recommendations from people I trust who
have used a particular product.

And that's how I found and tried The Bat! and then I fell in love with
it.

I am so glad to know about this.

Totally agree. And I know that nearly everyone posting here does try
to keep the criticism positive.

Here's to an IMAP in TB! that meets the needs of everyone who wants to
use it, and as soon as reasonably possible!
