Agreed. A product is better than no product. Although the Linux challenge is ever present and these products need to represent value for money and with *poor* upgrade support you lose the only reason to avoid Open Source solutions. I like my Vopmail even though it doesn't do half as much as Postfix, Qpopper, IMAP, slapd and Spamasssasin which run on my Linux servers and need attention - well, never! I moved from software.com's post.office product to vopmail because Vircom promised to be there and be responsive - that was the attraction to vopmail. The honeymoon is over and they are no better than any of the other companies (commercial software) that I deal with although that is certainly not an endorsment I would be proud of. They have lost the "EDGE" ..Petar ----- Original Message ----- From: "Luiz Lima" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, August 01, 2003 7:43 PM Subject: [VOPmail Beta] VOPMail 6.0 FAQ > * This is the vopmailbeta mailing list * > > > > We demanded an upgrade so they hack modus and > > deliver to keep us quiet. > > Petar, > > I disagree with a lot of stuff going on at Vircom, both technically (bugs > that take too long to be fixed, long awaited new features, patches that > don't go public) and commercially (too long to write here).
