[pmmail-list] Feature Request

[Kenneth Yuill]

Hello Lüko,

Excuse my disposition, as frustrations about other matters took over.

Yes, it is evident that one could cut & paste to rearrange the List as 
desired.  There is always an alternative method.

Also, I have to agree that my suggestion pales in comparison to having a
version of PMMail in your native language.  This is an onerous task for
a small firm such as BSW and likely it would be governed solely by its
potential revenue.  At this juncture in the life of OS/2, such a project
would have to be a joint venture or a licensing agreement with a firm in
the targeted country or countries.  Since PMMail 2000 is a relatively 
mature product, BSW should have the incentive to initiate such a project
and for your sake, I hope that Germany is chosen ahead of India, China, 
South America or burgeoning markets.

Ciao,
    Kenn
