Beta Version
Probably another beta this week. Today or tomorrow Ludovic wonders about usage number on Beta. We're at about 20K - this is a stable number. We currently have a very homogeneous group on Beta. Nobody using antivirus, on other providers than gmail, dovecot, only plaintext e-mail. We need new beta testers.
