Hi Eugene, With the risk of sounding like this rushing, frustrated type of guy I would like to tell you what I expect. Afterwards I'll let you be the judge if I'm in a major rush and if I'm being unrealistic in my expectations...
When I download the latest versions off the official website (TB 2.0.0.22, Webmail 1.3.2, Yahoo 1.4.4 and Hotmail 1.2.22) I expect them to be the latest, working versions. Instead I get some half tested product that does not install in the most normal intuitive way, like running them off the website that offers them and provide u with a clickable icon.... If you do that it will will NOT install but it will say "incompatible with firefox 3.5". Don't you think that's a tiny bit annoying ergo leading to frustration? Wouldn't you think "what moron put this there ad didn't test it properly???" Now you have to go find to some forum and be lucky enough to get an answer froma whizkid and if he takes the time he'll tell you to drag and drop these extensions in the add on manager. Who in his right mind thinks of that without help from the outside world? I would be fired on the spot if I delivered my work like that... Then you get the "Domain undefined" message. So you need another nerd in a forum to tell you that where TB asks you for an account name, you actually shouldn't fill in your account name. Noooo, you have to fill in your email address..... Sweet Jezus, why doesn't TB ask me for my Email-address if it wants me to put my email address there? And then when you think you finally have taken the last hurdle (after 10 days of asking questions in fora and waiting for answers) then you get the "negative vibes" message. What kind of message is that anyway... Negative vibes..., I'm not a 6 year old... Well Eugene, I can only take so much and I will go on using poppeeper. It doesn't allow me to keep my emails offline like I'd like to but it does something that TB doesn't. IT DOES WHAT IT SAYS ON THE TIN. And I installed it without a glich. It worked after 5 minutes. So, It's possible. It just needs to be developed by people who know what they are doing and take the time to test their product before they offer it to the public. And thank you for calling me unpatient. I needed that. And sorry, but I am not willing to spend hours searching in some knowledge base to do what somebody else should have done. I think it's unprofessional / amateuristic to abuse the end-user as the final tester to get the bugs out. Ok, the program is free. I acknowledge that. But if you offer a program in the boastful way this is being presented, do it good or just don't. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thunderbird Webmail Extension" group.
