Hello. I thought I'd successfully avoided downloading Safari 5 when I unchecked it in Software Updates, but alas, it installed right along with 10.6.4. Guess I should've figured this would happen. At any rate, I'm currently fishing through the massive pile of Safari 5 messages to see if I find th

Your post brings up an interesting point about the preview pain. I don't use it as I use Zoom along with VO, and so I don't want to have to scroll or navigate down to the message area. Preferring the message open on top, then I just hit delete or reply or whatever. I forgot to tell Apple that
