[pmmail-list] Why new version, if there are no new features?

Hi!

Is anybody able to explain, why there are a couple of new
beta-versions available, but all of these in my opinion doesn't
change anything. A lot of bugs are still in there and the real
important missed features are also not included - none of them!

So, features like:
  * inserts X-Commands in the header
  * Auto-Encrypt any reply to an encrypted message
  * Auto encrypt, if recipient has an pgp-key
  * move messages with filter across accounts
  * text-color for quoting
  * configure headers, included in a forwarded message
  * new pgp-sdk version, so you can use pgp 7.0.1
  * find and delete duplicated messages (e.g. after a crash)
  * mark messages
  * the ability, to see the email-thread (of In-Reply-To)
  * IMAP
  * > 64K messages
  * common addressbook for network

and so on.

Ok, I can accept, that not ALL of these features can be included 
in a new version, but I got more and more the feeling, that there
is no effort on BSW, to include ANY of this often demanded features!

To prevent misunderstanding:
I really like PMMail and I think it the best email-client available,
but there are some features missed, which are really important to
the user and so it's a pitty, to not include these.

So, please BSW: be honest and please let us know, if you really
plan to include some of these new features and when you expect to
release a new version with new features!

Best regards

  Steff
