'k, thank you, Emily; i'll try that. and part of my concern about the charging business is that i actually placed my order for PM 4.1.2 - i didn't know PM 5 was coming soon. plus something was funky with my browser's caches so i couldn't get to any PM 5-related pages on the website until it dawned on me that something might be funky with my browser's caches and i did some hocus-pocus and then could get to the formerly missing pages.
my whole PowerMail experience has been kind of a nightmare so far, some of it PowerMail's fault, some of it not. again, i'll try the suggestion. thanks. walt Quoting Emily Jackson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > At 7:05 AM -0500 on Tuesday, April 20, 2004, [EMAIL PROTECTED] > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > >the release notes say that when i first launch PowerMail it will ask me > >if i want to create a new database or convert my old one. it didn't. i > >double-clicked the key (serial number-installing) file and it asked me if > >i wanted to update PowerMail with the key in it and i said yes and > >PowerMail launched, but it never asked me about converting my old database. > > When I launched the PM 5 beta for the first time, I had to choose File -> > Database -> Switch User Environment; then I got a dialog box asking me to > locate my PowerMail Files folder. > > As for the order, this is from the "Thank You" page that came up when I > placed my order for PM 5: "No charge will be applied to your credit card > before PowerMail 5.0 ships in final release form.
