Absolutely.  The code from JStreet was eventually turned over to the
authors of Polarbar when Innoval decided to get out of the email client
market.

I used PRM for a couple years before I finally turned to PMMail/2
because PRM was no longer being developed.  Of course, once I purchased
and started using PMMail/2, development on that effectively stopped as
well.  Overall, however, I am less frustrated by the limitations of
PMMail than I was by the limitations of PRM.
