Jos.
Good point. Since Entourage apparently considers all of us paying users to be beta testers by releasing buggy software, I might as well accept my fate and strive to make the next buggy update less buggy than it would be otherwise.

I take it this is your first time dealing with a company that develops software? You do know Microsoft and most every company has a Beta period where they have people Beta test (and the Beta testers usually do it for free.) This is nothing out of the ordinary. I can give you some links if you'd like where you can find multi-billion dollar companies doing this...

I beta test for a certain cell phone manufacturer for free.

I'm getting to like that phrase, Sheri. Succint and to the point

I suggest the administrator give Chubster his own area of the forum so he can complain to himself.

Call it "Chubulor Bellows" or something !

I can live with that ! Chubulor has some fair points. It's just his delivery that sucks IMHO!

Tell me, drsteve, how I'm supposed to raise my fair points without committing the apparent cardinal sin of complaining.

Disclaimer: If the web version of the free Yahoo Mail actually works under Dingo, my main complaint will be obviated and I may install the update. The "issues list" gave the impression that the web version doesn't work as well as the app version.

Fate and strive...good words! Lemme ask you something...and don't take this as an attack. Do you like using the eDGe, or are you just trying to be controversial? I just want to know...I don't know you very well, so the best way to find out is to ask.
