Hello Peter,

Do you have a release note for v1.6 RC4?

Just a bit of info for MySQL 4.1.7 users:

RC4 seems to rely on something that is broken in MySQL 4.1.7 and fixed in all versions after that. I found this out after installing RC4 when I started receiving datbases errors like:
[SELECT id FROM ost_email_banlist WHERE email='my@emailaddress.com'] - Illegal mix of collations (latin1_swedish_ci,IMPLICIT) and (utf8_general_ci,COERCIBLE) for operation '='


I upgraded our MySQL to 4.1.22 and the error went away.

By the way, thanks for a great product and all your hard work Peter!

Did the issue with POP3 fetching the same emails over and over get fixed?

This release implements language files? if not, there is a forecast?

There is no languagefile-system so far.
i translated most of it, but it is still hardcoded !
You Probably need to wait for RC 4 or 5.

as far as i am informed there will be debugging followed by
templatesystem and then language file support
This is RC1 and not a propper release so far !
