My G5 iMac is working fine, though I did have to replace the power supply a couple of months ago.

Does it mean the 24 iMacs were quite troublesome? Basing on these figures, the 24 seems the worst model, besides the 20 model (but the 20 could have been sold way more); and the 21.5 seems the less troublesome (or the least sold, but It doesn't seem likely).

Re: You all have probably figured it out by now
No, it just marks it based on the sender of the returned email. The spam filter doesn't look at included message quotes, just the headers/subject of the marked email. I periodically review the spam folders so if there IS something I want to read I can do so. Dennis B.

Interesting, Dan. GMail didn't do that to me. Of course now that I've said that, I've probably jinxed myself! :) Dennis B.
