Hi Jeremy, But doesn't the "work around" you suggest negate the ability to use spotlight quickly and efficiently to find archived mail within the user account I am using now?
I vote for my suggestions which make sense from a User Iterface perspective. After all a database file has a name. Why shouldn't the user be able to see that in the program. Also if you switch databses often having the files appear as a recent files enu item list would be so convenient. It might require a bit of user awareness, but at least these suggestions help solve the troubles created when you forget to switch back to the current correct database after reviewing an archived e-mail from an archived database. I have sent this "idea" to the developer years ago, and I am not holding my breath, but I sure would like to see some forward motion on PowerMail. I still want it to be my e-mail program, even though all the forces that power us want html mail to supplant text e-mail. I'm guessing there must not be many users trying to keep things organized as I do ;-) Thanks, and so long for now, TOM >An evasion probably could be to install an additional user (and the PM >there too, of course) to store the switched database in the folder >"PowerMail Files" and to open it only there?
