Static, or you can set it to bounce by selecting Animate application icon
while in background in the Notifications preference pane.

No, but I do have a follow up question.

Does the PowerMail dock icon "ever" change it's appearance to indicate
that there is unread mail, or it it totally static?

I have about 900 contacts, and the import into PowerMail went flawlessly,
as well as very fast, no problems.

Yes, it needs some updating.

In the meanwhile, check out Tim's PowerMail FAQ: 
 
which might help fill in a few answers for you.

PowerMail AppleScript Archives: 

is another place if you're into AppleScripts.

Both are user maintained.

Are you using some haxies?

If so, remove them and see if things get better. Putting PM in their 
"exclude list" won't be enough.
I have no problems with them, though. And there once was a PM's bug 
exposed by haxies, so this also may be a PM's problem...

[Jonathan Greene]

Seems a bit odd, but the manual (help file and link) is for version 3,
not the current version...

I don't think so but it would be nice.

In Prefs, Uncheck the HTML Reader. The page will load quickly but all the
html will be seen. Then click on the globe icon and your favorite browser
will open with the page loaded. Hopefully when the Safari API's are
released they can be incorporated to the HTML viewer code.

In the 3 pane view there is a little eye looking icon in the horizontal
divider. Click on it.

Give it a try but with that much mail it's likely to take a while. There
is a 30 day demo. I found the best way to evaluate was to live in
PowerMail for a while. Ask questions about doing what you want to
accomplish if you don't readily see a way.

There was a time (Thu, Mar 6, 2003 at 11:16 PM)

Nope. At one time I thought I'd want to see the number of unread
messages, but it didn't take me long to realize I had to make that
irrelevant or I'd just get depressed knowing there were 398 messages in
one folder just waiting for me.

>3 - On the web site there is a floating search field/filter box... where
>is that activated?

There is a little, wide-eyed eye next to the number of message text in
your window. Click that and you can do a basic filter on the displayed
folder. Or command-F brings up the Find dialog for a search with a few
more features.

questions... just joined...

[Jonathan Greene]

Just joined the group and giving PowerMail a good test drive.

Some questions...

1 - Is it possible to see the number of unread messages in the dock and
per folder?

2 - CNet HTML Newsletters seem to cause PM to choke... anyone else
experience that?  I've had to force quit a few times, just for them.

3 - On the web site there is a floating search field/filter box... where
is that activated?

4 - Import from Mail.app?  How well/smooth is the process... just need to
start thinking about moving close to 1.7GB of mail if I purchase.

Thanks in advance!

Common crash?

[Lane Roathe]

on Thu, Mar 6, 2003 Lane Roathe may have said:

I am having PM crash on me in OS X 10.2.x on a regular basis. It seems
the "interrupt safe" list is not. The crash always occurs while the app
is just sitting there (ie, never while I'm actively using it) and I do
not have background indexing on.

Anyone else seeing this, or is it just me? Does it seem that 25-45
threads (I've seen up to 58!) are a bit excessive?

Click and hold the mouse on the PowerMail application while holding the
control key down. Then choose the "Show Package Contents" option. Once
you do that, you'll find what you're looking for.
