My experience was somewhat different. I used Entourage exclusively for several years but a couple of years ago I switched to PowerMail. I did a lot of research before switching to find the client that matched up best with the features I was looking for, one of which was speed. Almost every review mentioned PM's speed. When I switched over, that's one of the things I noticed: that typing, sending, downloading, and searching (not surprising given the FoxTrot engine) seemed faster. I think you're right: some may have to do with illusion, some with expectations, and some with the configuration of the computer.

I notice that the characters 'take' just as fast, but that they appear to delay in drawing just a hair's breadth. However, there is a very noticeable delay when typing in a new email while PM is downloading new email. That doesn't happen in Entourage... Jeff ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jefferis Peterson, Pres.

I tested it and it works: tell application "PowerMail" set attachFolder to attachment folder set theMessages to current messages repeat with msg in theMessages set msgStatus to status of msg set attachList to attachments of msg if (count items of attachList) > 0 then repeat with attachIdx from (count items of attachList) to 1 by -1 delete attachment attachIdx of msg end repeat end if end repeat end tell Success, Jan ---------------------------------------------------------------------- End of powermail-discuss Digest
