I do the same. I created a colour group for replies.

I then created a VF which will list all messages unreplied to and
which have the 'for reply' colour group. So when I wish to mark a
message for reply later on, I assign it the reply colour group. Since
it's unreplied to it appears in the VF. When I reply to the message,
it loses it's unreplied to status and therefore disappears from the
VF.

Since the v1 to v2 step, Ritlabs has always been close to full
releases. The next will be out shortly. :)

One irritating bug tends to replace another. The question is how much
do these bugs mean to you.

What I'm trying to say is that there's no sense waiting. There are
many using the current incarnation of v2 for serious work and without
significant problems.

The only reason I'd suggest waiting for the next full release before
trying v2 would be for IMAP. It has undergone a lot of improvements
since its debut in v2's initial offerings.

Exactly. So the only way to know if TB! v2 will be stable for you is
to actually try it.

Features are another thing, but again there's only so much one can get
out of a description of them.

Fabulous. Since when? :)

I lasted a couple months with Win95 and moved to OS/2 Warp.

I agree wholeheartedly. OS/2 v2.1 was FAR better than Windows 3.1 and
Warp 3&4 better than Win9x/ME and also NT4 in some respects. However,
OS/2 stagnated while the others progressed. It's now a relic. :)

I don't think it's the different type of mail but the difference in
how we work and choose to approach mail management.
