*** PARITALLY INERGRATED ***
** Features that don't have all the things that it had in 3.6x (yet). This doesn't have to mean these features are incomplete... Some things that are missing have become useless in WLM. I don't expect all these things will come back.
- Contact List Clean-Up
  * Missing "View Profile" button
  * Missing "Send e-mail" button
- Contact on Desktop
  * Rightclick on nick > Messenger Plus! extras > Display on Desktop... doesn't let you choose location like old version did
  * "Copy E-mail to clipboard" missing
- Boss Protection
  * No more multiple presets
- About box
  * No Hyperlinks or buttons
- Contactlist Plus! menu
  * "Online Help" button (in Plus! menu on contactlist)
- Contactlist Quickmenu
  * Missing "Show the Event Log Window"
  * Missing "Open the Sound Library"
- Conversation Window Plus! Menu
  * Missing "Disable Personalised Status"
- Tabbed Chats
  * Missing "Auto-activate chat windows with unread messages"
  * Group/Ungroup keys don't work (F7 and F8 if I recall correct)
- Personalised Status
  * Auto-responder message formatting
  * Shorten my name when I use a status tag
  * status presets keyboard shortcuts
  * other status then away or busy in presets
- /ping
  * "Respond to ping? requests" on/off
- Quick Texts
  * Missing "shortcut sends the text"
- Word Filtering - ??? Replace by new style quick texts ??????
  * Not able to filter messages you receive
  * Not able to filter contact names


*** MISSING FEATURES ***
** Features I didn't have seen come back in MP!L at all (yet). I know that doesn't mean the won't come back in MP!L at all (v4.00 or v4.10, or maybe even later.
- Task Scheduler
- Configuration wizard
- Enable/Disable "Allow Plus! to send anonymous stats..."
- Automatically change status after period of inactivity
- Contact List Docking
- Truncate Nicknames
- "Allow the use of commands and tags" on/off
- Command Helper windows
- /clear
- Quick Icons
- Contact information (/info)
- Triggers (File Sharing)
- Export/Import preferences


*** FEATURES THAT MIGHT/WILL NOT COME BACK ***
** These are features that probably won't come back at all. That means not in 4.00, not in 4.10 and not later.
- Plugins (completely replaced by scripts)
- Comeback Messages (became useless because you can now use offline messaging)
- Custom Names (WLM has it's own rename, although it's less features)
As you can see this list is quite big, but don't worry. Because when you actually read the list you'll see that the "PARITALLY INERGRATED" list is hardly interesting... there are only very small things listed there which 90% of the users wouldn't notice if it's missing anyway. I still expect some of the things on this list to come back before final release, but this is what's missing in build .225.
Finish the problem
