Put a space (blank) before the address of one of them in the PM address book.

Address Book won't allow same email address, two names

2004-01-13 Thread Jaede Miloslavich

I have tried everything...I would like to have two people share the same
email address in the Address Book.  My father-in-law (Gene) and mother-
in-law (Barbara) share an email address, but I can't seem to get my
Address Book to accept them as separate entities.  After I have entered
Gene, I try to enter Barbara - I either get a low level error, or it says
I already have that address in the Address Book and won't allow me to
save it with her name.  When I address a note to Barbara in an email
note, sometimes it will auto correct and replace her with Gene's name
(the only one in the Address Book).  I want to write notes to only one or
the other, same email address.  Is there a way to do this?

Thanks,

Jaede




Re(2): Feature request: Date Sent

2004-01-13 Thread alan

I didn't know about this.

I am guessing that "date saved" is the time that the email arrived at my
computer. If you don't check email for a while, this date is (nearly?)
the same for a large number of emails. Better than "Date Sent" when
dealing with bozos, but not perfect.

Thx

This question comes up on the support forums for dot mac alot. It is
pretty much simply the nature of IMAP. Although in the application Mail,
for example, you can choose to have the mail cached on your computer
which is not the case as far as I know with PowerMail.
With PowerMail you should get all the mail on your server when you open
the connection. If mail comes in after that you SHOULD be able to "Get
Mail" to show these new ones, without closing the connection first. But I
don't think they automatically show up without doing anything. I don't
use IMAP in PowerMail, although I have tried it a couple of times,
because of PM's not filtering IMAP mail.

Feature request: Date Sent

2004-01-13 Thread alan

I wish PowerMail (and every email client) had a "bozo button" to sort
emails on the correct date sent. I can't tell you how often I have
messages missorted (usually from a list serve) because someone hasn't set
the date or location of his/her computer correctly. [FWIW, these bozos
are universally Windows users]. All the information to figure out the
correct date is in the headers, because it is nearly impossible that a
mail relay would have this information wrong. Wouldn't it be easy to use
the "Received" headers, and not the "Date" header for sorting?

Eg:

As might be expected, the email in question is from one of those deluded
people who think that a normal Windows system file is "infected" with a virus.

.Mac IMAP

2004-01-13 Thread Mirko Kranenburg

I apologize if thai has been discussed before, but:
I recently started to use my .Mac e-mail account as IMAP. Surely I can
create such an account, and it all seems to work.
But.
I checked the account via webmail, and I found that there are more
messages on the server than in the PM mailbox.
Only by closing the connection and reopening it I get those messages.

Bug in the app, bug in me as end-user, am I doing something wrong??
Surely .Mac support would be of interest to CTM and PowerMail?!

Thanks for any thoughts,

Mirko
