texte = Holy cow... a message from Smith Micro on the talk list! I just searched the archives for messages with the Sender containing the substring "@smithmicro.com", and the last posting was September 8, from Doug Deck - over 6 months ago! Scott's last posting was July 28. I hope this means Scott is working on something good for us... it's been an awfully long silence that's leading a lot of long timers to pursue or consider other directions for their web sites.
