eMerge Update Speeds Direct Email Processing

Galleon Software has released eMerge 1.6.2, a small-numbered revision that nonetheless greatly improves the direct-email program’s functionality (see "Legitimate Direct Email eMerges" in TidBITS 465). Primarily, importing email address lists is now three times faster, while exporting the information is now 11 times faster. There is also greater control over duplicate email addresses and filtering. Another nice improvement is the elimination of a few minor (but frustrating) text-editing bugs in eMerge’s main message window. eMerge 1.6.2 is a free update for registered users, and is a 1.3 MB download. New users can download a 2.2 MB demo version; registration is $99.
