Hi Craig,

Welcome to the club. It was the same here, albeit ~2 years ago. :-)
CW> Now I find out a new version will be available in 6 days
I don't quite understand why they announced that. The current beta
doesn't feel ready for release to me...

I don't think so. Keep cool for now. *s*

I'm sure the Ritlabs guys might be willing to consider this. :-)
OTOH, with 1.62r you have purchased a well functioning mail client that
you can use as long as you like.
My mother is using TB! 1.61i, I believe, and when I tell her about newer
versions, she waves me off, no thanks, this is working fine, please
don't change it... ;-)
Version 2 has been profoundly re-coded and it has additional features
like IMAP support and PGP/MIME, so I see it as a new product, based on
the previous.
