-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Allie,

The truth is that 1.54 is almost certain to be released as the first V2 early next year. It will only contain a completion of the feature set we're already testing for that release and /possibly/ a gesture in the direction of customisable toolbars. The other features you list, although generally hinted at being slated for V2, probably won't see the light of day until around v2.1. There is a credibility issue in saying "This is V2", since a major percentage of the features originally promised for that version will have been implemented and tested piecemeal in the V1 series. RIT have already suffered enough skepticism for not having released V2 after having first discussed the feature set for it nearly two years ago. The main "icing on the cake" features above and beyond what's there now will be (AFAICS) new sorting office, new HTML renderer, new editor with HTML authoring (don't yell at me; it's not my fault; blame the magazines that mark TB down in the reviews for not having it - do you want RITlabs to survive or not? even though the rest of the world is just beginning to realize that HTML mail is actually a BAAAD thing (tm) - I'm certainly not going to be using it), global folders, customisable toolbars (in theory) plus the stuff we already have - CC, GPG, new mailbase. Oh yes. You already said that. And it's already been rebuilt using Delphi 6 which means that they're getting ready to port to Linux soon after. Anyway. This is mostly "on good authority" rather than conjecture. - -- Cheers -- .\\arck D.
