Hi H.,

This is a user-to-user forum, so for an official answer you'd best contact Ritlabs by e-mail.

a) Gmail (Google) is probably the world's most popular provider, The Bat has always supported it and Ritlabs has always updated their software whenever Gmail quircks made that necessary, so I wouldn't expect any changes there. However, Gmail is also the most unpredictable and obstinate provider so I doubt that any publisher of mail client software would 'guarantee' Gmail support (actually, standard software rarely ever comes with any guarantees -- it is licensed 'as is' because the diversity of platforms and the dependence on hardware, drivers and an operating system that all work correctly make that impossible).

b) and c) shouldn't pose any problems either, but I wonder what would happen if your ex-partner would try to upgrade from the same license. I don't know if Ritlabs actually keep records of which old licenses have been upgraded, but if they do, I suppose that only one of you could purchase the upgrade.

I'd like to upgrade my install of The Bat Pro (ver. 6.8.8) to the latest version if we can confirm that it will continue to work with gmail accounts. My questions for now are..

a) will it continue to work with Gmail after end of May?

b) My Bat install is on my ex-partners computer which I now own and use so if I upgrade with my own ID, paypal etc will the current license be
properly overwritten with my name instead of hers with no problems?

c) Can I upgrade to the home version from pro version to save a bit of cash?
