Re: PowerMail support case #MYVAPY
All of a sudden PM stopped being able to make connections to the mail-servers of my different accounts. Rebuilding everything after starting PM with command-option pressed doesn't help. I have no idea what brought this on. The attached screendump shows the error message I get after waiting a long time. The screendump states: Unexpected error on pop.xs4all.nl Class='NetC', what=3, when=3, err=-355 Please help! I have to use Mail to deal with my mail now, but that doesn't help me, because I rely heavily on rules. Thanks, Mirko

SMTP authentication 'protocol error' against OSXS mail server
Does anyone konw what SSL protocols are supported by Powermail for SMTP authentication? I am trying to use use PM's smtp auth against a Mac OSXS 10.3 server (with a self-signed cert) and am unable to make it work. Other mail clients (Mail.app and Mailsmith) work just fine using the same settings. With powermail however, I receive an 'SSL protocol error' dialog.

other kind of notification that sending failed
Daniel, [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: I would like to see some other kind of notification that mail does not go out than just the yellow triangle. My proposal is a triangle symbol on the outgoing folder itself and an error log. The log could be held in the Mac OS X logs and be reached by a menu.

Spin-up of HDs when switching user environment
Hi, does anyone know why switching user environments by double clicking a file of the new environment causes all attached harddisks to the machine to spin-up when they had been spundown? This is even when the environment is on the same, running disk as the old one. As it is, it takes roughly 10 to 15 seconds to switch environments because that only happens when all attached HDs are back to operation. Is there a way to avoid this? Is this an OS issue (what calls are made by PM at switching environments that might cause the OS to have to read/ write from all attached disks)? Thanks for any hints on how to avoid this. Regards, Christian.

Off the top of my head I can't think of another app that does that (short of a web browser of course). On the other hand, cmd- click has been a convention for many years. As Mikael pointed out, virtually every text editing interface imaginable conventionally uses double-click as a word-selection mechanism. Indeed, that's why many of us find the PM URL behaviour so irritating. -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca

Multiple accounts
Something very strange has happened in PowerMail 5.0.1 this weekend. My .Mac account is the primary one I use, but I have 3 others (including the one provided by my ISP). Until this weekend, I would compose email in the other 3 account (although rarely the one from the ISP) and click send and off it went. Now, only the .mac mail is sent with the send. To send any other email, I need to quit PowerMail, getting the do you really want to quit you are connected message and restart; then the email was sent at first, but now, only the email from my ISP will be sent and 2 other accounts sits waiting. Several others have been using my computer the last few days and I wondered if there was some keys they hit that created some preference, although I have searched everywhere and cannot find anything. I can still send from .Mac without a problem. Midi
Re: Odd email from (possibly) PM discussions
From Rick Lecoat [EMAIL PROTECTED] on Sun, 18 Jul 2004 21:45:26 +0100 [22.45 CET] Any comments welcome. I also received such a MailSword-generated email. Just visited www.mailsword.com to find out what this is about. Well, I'm not very impressed and that's because of two considerations: 1) Quote from the above website: Before delivering message to your mailbox MailSword system politely replies (with verification request) to an unknown sender to manually verify his intent to deliver the message to you. This approach breaks the golden rule: Never reply to spam! (Why? - Because a reply to spam is likely to generate even more spam, as you confirm the validity of your email address.) My way of handling spam is silence. No reply, no reaction. Just a quick glance at it to make sure that I don't delete the one valid message of thousands of spam, and then I let it go into the void, where the minds of spammers are. 2) Another quote from that website: MailSword software is installed on the same machine that is used as an email client (end user computer) for individual users... If the MailSword software could communicate with the mail server _before_ downloading mail to the user's hard drive, we could talk about saved bandwidth. But as the user still have to download all messages, it's not the case. True, spam won't make it all the way to the user's email client, as the MailSword software stands between the mail server and the email client, but whether it is worth $39.95 to keep track of filtered mail flagged as spam by the MailSword software or by PowerMail's filtering capabilities (with the possible added aid of SpamSieve) is everyone's decision to make. -- Damienn ___ If people think nature is their friend, then they sure don't need an enemy. - Kurt Vonnegut http://hem.bredband.net/damienn ___

Re: Thanks! EMA exporter
Mikael Byström sez: I don't really understand why you would like them in the EMA database (except as a backup of course), when they could all be at your fingertips any time without having to fire up FM separately. Since upgrading my system, this has been less of an issue, but at one time trying to keep massive numbers of messages within my email program slowed it down. Since I accessed the majority of mail I saved very rarely anyway, it was better to trim things down every two to three months, keeping perhaps the last 5-6 months of mail in the mail program itself. The FM Pro database I was using made a much better archiver, anyway, and, until PM recently changed it's search engine, did better searches over that large a database anyway. Plus,you write having to fire up FM separately like it takes a massive amount of time to do so. :) Click on the database, a couple dockbar bounces, and the database is ready for searches. Boom. The wait is, at most, a couple or three seconds. I fritter away more than that when I fall asleep at the keyboard each afternoon. :) -- Michael Lewis Off Balance Production [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.offbalance.com

I really think the recent MailSword generated message replies, that I'm sure more subscribers to this list have received, are to be considered as spam and dealt with accordingly.
