Thanks. A few invitations get sent back to me, but usually those customers can
provide an alternative email address. The bigger problem is that people ignore
the invitations, either because their filter filters them out or because they
just look like spam.

Anyway, this drawn-out two month delivery window was good for the first release,
the product would have been much worse without the feedback. Not sure if this
will still apply next time around ..
