Re: some filters i have wrote.
Tim,
I'm not very happy with the remarks on your homepage.
Why does Filter Factory suck badly?
There are hundreds of great filters made with FF. It's great as soon
as you get the hang of it. And FF is the reason why there is such a
great Mailing list like this.
What do you mean with "FiFo is SenilityWare"?
It's just time limited Shareware. If you like it and want to use it,
you have to pay for it. Nothing wrong with it in my opinion.
And what do you mean with "FM is ClumsyWare"?
Maybe you forgot that FM is still beta software? The final version
surely will have an option to compile standalone filters.
Please be carefull with such kind of remarks.
Michael.
