Matthias -

I think you have missed my point. I also think you have overlooked at
least an occasional attempt to be helpful.

As to html, I am not asking for anything new. I am asking for an
existing feature to work as expected (printing).

How many other Mac programs do you know of which can't print things they
can display, forcing you to use another program as a workaround? In any
other software most users would be up in arms about a basic feature like
printing not working properly. I am merely pointing that out. I would
not expect freeware to have this flaw. If that is whining, so be it.

This does not mean PowerMail does not "rock" in lots of other areas. But
would you expect a Mercedes 500 SL to have steel wheels or lack ABS?
