I just upgraded  to the latest version and I must say that it went
perfectly. GREAT JOB Julian!

No errors at all after stopping MailScanner service that was running and
then doing upgrade and following all directions. I must admin that it
wasn't until AFTER the upgrade was complete that the thought of all of the
altered reports came into my mind - but to my surprise - they were not
touched at all by the upgrade.

Excellent product Julian - you can count on me for at least a T-Shirt or
two...and when I can find some time even a link on my site.

Thank You
