I wholeheartedly agree. I started using The Bat! last November and purchased a licence soon afterwards. I paid the licence fee based on its merits at that time. The opportunity to upgrade at a discounted price is great. Moreover, I'm supporting further development of my preferred mail client. So $17.50 seems a rather small investment considering the likely number of updates and improvements yet to come.
