What a trial IMAP in TB! has been to all of you who are using/testing it! :unreal2:
What is so sad Mary is nothing is being done about it. I'm not sure having Mulberry to fall back on is a good thing either. It's just made me more critical of just how bad TB is as an IMAP email client.
Most IMAP users on here also use Mulberry and having us use a 99% perfect IMAP client for comparison is probably not what the lads at RIT want to hear. The MSI installer worked 100% perfect here without a hitch. Missing icons I can live with, spelling mistakes I can live with, using a non functioning email client for sending and receiving email is a little bit harder to get to grips with.
Basically, I feel very let down, saddened by their Cavalier, couldn't give a damn attitude to important issues in favour of trivia.
Allie, Gary, Clive, Mauel, myself and many others have all reported the same persistent problems time and time again and what do we get? A sound file!!! I doubt many of us even noticed there was no sound when a message came in, we were probably too busy jumping, singing and making our own noise when one managed to. I doubt any of us notice any messages coming in let alone the theme tune to Charge of the Light Brigade if they do.
What incentive is there to remain loyal when the developers themselves show no loyalty to their long time users? It's been a very long while since I recommended TB to anyone. As much as I hate to admit it, my desire to be able to use TB full time again is waning more and more with each new build.
Diminishing credibility is a phrase that springs to mind. It's taken 25 builds to get rid of all the AV's, and 1 build, the 26th to put them all back in again. I fear TB! shelf life and further development towards becoming a truly great email client is getting very close to it's end... Without actually attaining that particular title!
