Development Status

bMail is currently in pre-release state. While it is still usable and in production use on a few semi-large sites, more features must be implemented before Aardvark reaches release candidate status. A list of features required for Aardvark 1.0 can be found at our Bugs + Requests page. Additionally, changes can be tracked from the dev blog in the Development area.

In the meantime, please try the script and let us know your experiences, wants, and needs. If you are having any troubles, let us know!

bMail likes CSS compliant browsers!
