Hello Marck D.,
You maybe right on what you say here but I *do* think that your response is a
bit harsh even for a moderator of a very specific list.
It is a legitimate "petition" to inquire if TheBat does what other emailers
do. And changing the email is one of such things. I have requested this
myself.
There are no 2 equal users. One wants one feature, which the other hates.
This is called: democracy
And yes I think that Becky has it's nice touches, which I would like to see
in TheBat, *because I want to keep TheBat*.
Regards
