Hi Paul I appreciate and respect your caution, particularly in relation to matters of personal security. My response was not intended to be critical; if anything a little lighthearted. I simply wanted to make the point that the response from Agile support was a fair and reasonable explanation and response to his concerns. I thought that your "very disturbing" comment was a bit unfair however I now notice that your email was actually before John's second email so you were commenting without the benefit of seeing the explanation given by the support person.
I apologise if my response seemed harsh or offensive. Regards Shayne On Fri, Dec 10, 2010 at 10:02 PM, Paul Weaver <pwea...@westnet.com.au>wrote: > Well then, good luck to you.
