I can see how this is a good thing, reading all those things they want to do with NNW but can&#8217;t because they are just two people and there are only so many hours in the day. Also, reading <a href=\"http:\/\/www.drunkenblog.com\/drunkenblog-archives\/000683.html\">drunkenbatman explain a few things<\/a> about the situation, I can well understand how support for such successful products could be overwhelming &#8211; particularly for MarsEdit.<\/p>\n<p>On the support, it went without saying as far as I was concerned. My own fun, fun, fun with FTP \/ iTunes support issues has taught me that, even on a small scale, you can have a product that works exactly as it should, but once it starts integrating with something else, particularly server software, you enter a whole new world of pain: different configurations and versions along with user understanding issues that can devour whole days in the blink of an eye.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, well done to Brent and Sheila!
