Well, I'm more inclined to agree with Paul's suggestion to restrict
the focus to the main mail clients. I've been using eMA and am a
little frustrated that I have to go back to FMPro v6 to get mail
imports from Eudora to work flawlessly.

John: Have you ever considered opening up the development to work
collaboratively with those of us out here who do quite a bit of
programming? I certainly would be willing to throw my time into
getting the product up to snuff. And concerning the shareware fees:
don't want any part of the cut, and I'm sure any developers who help
with eMA would be willing to work on some deal for their own fee.

Anyhow, my $0.02.

Bob
