Trying it now, there are a few things right off the bat that I am not liking, maybe you all can suggest workarounds, or just tell me to stop being such a picky person ;-) Menus at the top, they are allowed above the screen, and no other app I have seen in OS X does this, I liked it in 9, but in PM, it just seems strange to me now, I have kind of used it as a "snap" feature now to move stuff to the top of the screen, and it goes just to the very top. Furthermore, I would like the ability to lock the menus to the message window, rather than having them floating around, is this possible? Attachments, seems PM just dumps them into a folder, there is no organization to the folder at all, at least, I would like to see them stored in folders named that of the account they are attached to. I remember this in Claris Emailer, I had the same issue, I started to like the way Entourage stored the attachment with the message. Send attachments, are they stored/copied anywhere? Again, I liked the way Entourage saved them to a message, often used that to save my but when I needed to back rev a file. I am actually more interested in learning more about what PM does not do that Entourage does, for example the bursting of messages, I never used that, so that does not matter to me, nice to know there is a script that can handle it. However, since I literally live out of email, I need to know up front if this is going to work for me. I would hate to import all my email and not like it and have a heck of a time moving back to Entourage. I just fear Entourage is going to die, and I will be left making this decision some other day soon. Thanks again, and sorry to be so stuck on Entourage, I am really looking to get out of it, what were your reasons for dumping it? ------------------------------------------------------------- Scott Haneda Tel: 415.898.2602 http://www.newgeo.com Fax: 313.557.5052 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Novato, CA U.S.A.
