Yes. I had this problem for a long time, and it stumped PowerMail support. I can't give you specific steps to apply, but I do know it has something to do with number of messages in the database. At the time, I had more than 5,000 messages. For unrelated reasons, I reduced this to about 3,000, and

Hi all, Well I am using 5.5b2 and am experiencing my first problem: If I switch from whatever mailbox I'm in to a different one, the 2nd email in the list becomes highlighted. It doesn't matter what column I'm sorted by. In fact, if I resort, the 2nd item stays selected (that is, not the same e

While I agree that notions of priority are never the same between sender and recipient, most software (and believe me, I've tried most if not all) on windows and mac has the option of setting message priority. Whether you use it is up to you, but it is there if you need it. Even mail.app has it now

I can certainly whip something up like this, however there is a gotcha. All mail would first have to be saved as a draft because filters don't run until after an item is sent, so there isn't a way to perform a filter on the message and there wouldn't be the proper headers before it is saved as a
