Re: Help Systems' email about AFP support discontinued at 7.3 - not true!

[Bradley Stone <bvstone@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have many customers and clients that use AFP, so it's good to hear it's
not true.

Then again, a lot of them haven't made the jump to v7rx either.  :)  So
even if it was true, it wouldn't really apply.
