Daniel,

Thanks a lot, they are very valuable points, indeed. I just don't know, how to persvuade my manager. I may try to use your arguments.

>$500 is probably a lot cheaper to the costs incurred by you, your colleague, and your mail server administration had to spend on this problem. IDSMail is one of the tool in my basic toolbox (DynaZip, ForeHelp, Graphics Server, IDSMail, SourceSafe) that I use with most programming languages. I tend to stay away from using freeware(?) tools like Nigel's class because there is a greater chance that it will not be supported in the near future. It does not mean it's not a great tool, just that I value support more than cost.

BTW, Nigel supports his class. In the beginning of this project I sent him several e-mails and received answers...
