Just to add my own input.
These days, if a mail program will do 90% of what I need it to do
TODAY and has no bugs that will stop me from using it, I will register
it.
For 35 bucks, to get the features I need, I will live with buying a
new program a year from now. If I was using a big expensive product
from a reliable company, I would expect to have to upgrade within 2
years anyway(after the next version is released, support for the old
version will dry up). So, WORST case, I am going to switch mail
clients a year from now anyway. Whether upgrading this one, or
purchasing a new one.
As long as I can export my email from this one, I don't care if it
disappears in a year.
