BOB,

The main reason I'm subscriber is ability to read msg in batch mode. But from time to time I want save some msg. Since 'keep' option is not available in batch mode, I have to read msg one by one. So why should I pay?!?

I was asking to fix this before. I got answer(s) back, that it will be fixed. From you, from Dave. Months ago. When will be? Any time frame on this one? Is it adding this 'keep' button really many many months project?

Now speaking of 'keep' option, there are more issues. Say, you list last 100 headers of some author, you want to go through them and read them. By clicking on 'next' will bring next msg from that author. As it should. Good.

But, say, you like some msg and you click on 'keep' to keep it. Now clicking on 'next' will not bring next msg from that author. Index get lost and you can start again filtering msgs from that author. This is anoying and makes 'keep' button unusable unless you are in normal, free mode, where you are reading msgs day by day.

I also have wish list:
(above is not wish list. It's simple an request or I will not renew my subscription next time)

- Is it possible, to add print button? Print button would be formated on the way, that by clicking on it, would print only msg body, what it is in the frame. Without header - just text?

- Timeframe, when you guys plan to change msg format on SI so we can start adding charts to our msg? This requests start few years ago. You are always answering with 'sometime in future' Do you ever plan to do this, or you are just avoiding to give us straight answer?

Thank you, Mario

P.s.
Bob, I was told, you are programmer here and on IH. Just maintenance programer or did you put all together on IH? The reason I'm asking you is the speed of loading msg on IH. I'm not subscriber there. So with msg I'm there loading adwertise banner, chart posted in msg and usually some small animation from the author of the msg and I'm keep impressed, by how fast those msg gets loaded. Good work there!!!
