In all fairness Tony, I don't think we should make those who are not
using TB! unwelcome here. There is no rule to say that you should be
using TB! to be subscribed and I don't think there ever will or should
be such a rule.

:-) I know what you're trying to say but we should look at these sort of
posts in a more positive light. I wouldn't say that he's trying to
convert anyone but is instead sharing with us what he thinks are good
Becky features. Now I know the 'software salespeople' types do exist and
tend to invade other lists to further their agendas but I don't think
Andrej has earned such suspicion.

I tried it myself and don't think so either.

I've been reading the thread and am expecting that it will die a natural
death. :-) I haven't felt the urge to intervene because it's not yet
become circular and others seem to be interested, especially since there
are a lot of subscribers at present who are in a state of flux with
their decision making on which client to settle on. A comparison with
other clients may therefore be beneficial.

:-) I hear your cry Tony but let's leave it a bit shall we?
