multiple spaces in PM 4.1.3 OS 9
I bought myself a second-hand Blueberry iBook this weekend. Great machine, once I readjusted myself to OS 9 again! As this machine will be used away from any tools, I only want to use stable release software, so I stuck with 4.1.3 until 4.2 is released. Strange thing, though: I found that when I type a message in PM 4.1.3, I get loads of double spaces between words. Only in PowerMail, and seemingly independent of Keyboard-settings. Is that familiar to any of you?

You all probably understood what I meant, but re-reading my own post, referring to it as a schedule doesn't really make sense. -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca
SMTP AUTH over SSL in a schedule?
Hi all, Under Schedulings and Locations, one can override the individual accounts' outbound SMTP servers and instead send everything through the master SMTP service for the schedule. This is how I run my mail day-to- day, and it's great (allowing me to change SMTP service with location whenever I roam with my laptop). Under the individual account config, it is also possible to specify SMTP over SSL on port 465. How do I do the same on a Scheduling-wide basis? In other words, I want to use a global SMTP-over-SSL (465) with a particular schedule. The non-parity between these two groups of settings (account and scheduling) is a bit confusing. -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca

-1 unread
All, In the normal course of operation this afternoon (4.2b6), I too am now experiencing the off-by-one error -- in my In Tray. I received and read some mail. After this, I noticed that the In Tray was still bolded, yet there were no unread messages to be found. A few minutes later I received a new piece of mail, totalling one piece of unread mail, and the In Tray became unbold. At this point I realised that when there are no unread messages, the status display indicates there are -1 unread messages. It seems the rule for bolding the In Tray is to do so when unread != 0, which is the case for -1. I can't discern what triggered this. Rebuilding the sort indices did not solve the problem. However, verifying the consistency of database records appears to have. -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca
