No, I was definitely having trouble with a 7.x version. First attempt (from a download) mail wouldn't work, second attempt (download) wouldn't even install. That's why I ordered the CD. It is only version 7.0 and that's why I wonder about a small sized update download for 7.02 because a full download will not be attempted by this user on his dial up connection again under any circumstances.
I am starting a new thread on this subject, because I am now using 7.0 (!)...
