We're almost exactly a week into 2005, and IlohaMail's off to a very good start.
- I now have an official Release Technician, who's going to do releases of the latest Devel branch code for me. It's the first time I got someone else to commit to a "position" in the project (other than as translator or packager).
- Two ISPs, Lycos-Europe and Kagoya have informed me about plans to re-distribute IlohaMail. Lycos has about 3 million customers, and Kagoya supposedly operates over a thousand servers (so probably a few thousand sites including hosted users). (See official news release.)
- I'm getting a lot of patches from users. One guy sent in 5 patches, and I got so overwhelmed I haven't processed them yet...
- IlohaMail 0.9 simply kicks ass. I think just about everything people have asked for is or will be there (except POP folders), and it'll be about 4 times faster to boot.

Congratulations! That Lycos seems like a cool idea.
