You may have hit a point here. I suspect that one of the routes to a bug laden area is a massive upgrade, meaning jumping from a 1.4x to a 1.60 version. Or going backwards because of being unsatisfied. It seems to create problems. Personally, I never downgrade by a far margin and have no problems with TB!. I've used all released versions and tried just about every beta. I've never lost mail out of the blue. When I see plans to make a massive upgrade or downgrade posted, I usually look out for the complaints and hope the person backed up. Though real mishaps do occur, I do think that most of the negative stuff that I've read are about program limitations or complaints based on a poor or faulty understanding of TB! and its functionality. Another contributor is that some users try to make TB! work *exactly* how they want or exactly how the previously used clients work and little issues/limitations come up that prevent this. Little issues that often just require a different approach but there's a resistance to welcoming a different approach so the implemented method is criticised and the complaining starts. I'm not really saying anything is particularly wrong with this. I just don't see that many posts about TB! causing data loss and under these circumstances it's very unlikely to be TB! but a system problem. - -- -=Allie C Martin=- List Moderator | TB! v1.60m | Windows XP Pro PGP/GPG Public Key: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=2B0717E2 _________________________________________________________________ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQE87VG1V8nrYCsHF+IRAugRAKCDiFCv5Oze5HARhk4rOSRDrOn99ACgp1wm 1xDEdfkPHVTfjpRSKL38FfM= =qri+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60m FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://bt.ritlabs.com
