Re: [epub] Aureate etc

["Ray S. Whiting" <rwhiting@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is fascinating.... I'm wondering now if ALL bannerware (like Eudora)
products are doing this, or just some.  I paid for GroupMail and the banners
stopped, but their Subscriber Plug-in still calls for banners.

But back to Aureate... does this hold true even with the paid version, or
does it matter?

What other list-management software is available to do what Aureate
Group-Mail does for an equal price
