-> The original author left Fidonet two decades ago. InterMail was a
-> fork of FrontDoor when the Frontdoor team of JOHO and Peter Stewart
-> fell apart and Peter went his own way with InterMail. InterMail was
-> a good mailer in its time. I say "was" becasue it stopped at version
-> 2.50 when it became obvious that Peter Stewart no longer considered
-> it a working bussines model and departed for greener pastures. As I
-> said, it /was/, past tense, a good mailer. I dropped ten years ago
-> when I moved on and dropped POTS.
-> The accompanying editor was never more than "soso" and Interecho
-> never got further than crippleware. I tried it for a short time and
-> then threw it out. There were beter tossers around back then.
->
-> The present maintainer? Well, is there a 32 bit version yet? I don't
-> think so...
->

Dale Barnes is the current maintain and yes, there is a 3.0 Windows version
that he has not released yet.  A couple of us are trying to get him to, but so
far to no availl.  And yes, he is a Fido node, too.

-> RW> So what, are you trying to tell me and the rest of the known worl
-> RW> that Wildcat is a non-standard BBS package?
->
-> I am trying to tell you that it is decades old abandonware that has
-> not evolved into the third decade of the 21st century along with the
-> rest of Fidonet.

Then if it's bothersome, contact Santronics since they own it and WINserver has
the same quoting scheme.  I am sure they would be happy to change it for their
BBS customers and ignore the commercial customers they have.
