[Dx4win] Next version of DX4WIN - tracking QSLs and e-QSLs?

Larry, will your present eQSL's count? ARRL is moving towards it, but I
thought it wasn't here yet?

Subject: [Dx4win] Next version of DX4WIN - tracking QSLs and e-QSLs?

I don't know about everybody else, but with the ARRL move toward sanctioning
Internet-based QSLing, I have begun using eQSL. It works OK, it is fast, but
it is not as exciting as opening envelopes from the mailman. I still enjoy -
and can't imagine ever abandoning - the traditional practice of sending and
collecting "real" QSL cards.

The problem is that DX4WIN regards a QSL as a boolean [Yes/No] event - you
either have a confirming QSL, or you do not. With the arrival of e-QSL's, I
will want to track more than one receipt per QSO: When did I send/receive an
eQSL? When did I send/receive a physical QSL? And, of course, there would
need to be reports that differentiate, for example "e"-DXCC versus
"classic"-DXCC.

Is anyone tracking those two mechanisms in DX4WIN today? How?
