Unread post Mail bug
Just wanted to let everyone know that I've identified a bug in the mail file. When extern runs, the mail file is completely reset. I'm fixing it, but if you notice something odd about your mail volume, that's probably it.

Let me guess. It does not like our Canadian postal code system, right? :) (joking)

Ok, it's fixed now.

Thrawn, the new version is available as TWGS10304.EXE. I also made some changes to the data conversion code, so if you could do another test of updating from your live v3.13 data, that would be great. I realized that to maintain support for older TWA edits, I needed to support importing data from versions earlier than v3.13, regardless of how old those files might be. I had problems installing the SubZero edit because it was created with an earlier version than v3.13. That should be resolved now.
