Hi Carlo, Firstly, I hope you kept a list of names for your RSS feeds. I couldn't use the exported feeds I made but the names were all I needed. Pulp lets you add RSS feeds via 'enter name and search box' in an edit tab. So I entered name 9 to 5 mac, it found a list of suggestions and I selected

Oh Daniel, I am so saddened to hear of Ian's passing. Ian was a thorough gentleman; a very sincere good person. I had helped him a lot on list and offlist over the years, and he always appreciated everything anyone did for him. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him. Please pass on my

Hi Daniel, WAMUG At the meeting we attended a couple of months ago I had a great chat with Ian - turns out we were both at Whyalla (South Australia) in the 1960s/70s. Subsequently we had a few interchanges about the new Reunion 10 which he was grappling with. Sad to hear of his sudden demise

Stubborn items in sidebar

Hi Noel, When you say the usual sidebar removal procedure, do you mean pressing the command key and dragging the folder out of the side bar? It should evaporate in a puff of smoke if all goes well. Are you certain your com.apple.sidebarlists.plist is missing? I hope I am not stating something
