Re: Powermail Crash

2004-09-22 Thread Mirko Kranenburg

Bill,

Thanks a lot, that is exactly what solves it for me!

I felt this tip was too good to keep for myself, so I am copying both the
list, and James Thomson of DragThing on it!

I had this happen too. It turned out to be related to the latest version
of DragThing. All I did was quit Dragthing and I was able to rebuild my
database, and compact the data file. 

I hope this turns out to be your problem too, losing email even with a
day old backup is a pain.

I have the same problem: the first aid screen is short-lived and ends in
unexpected quit. I believe the beta that was anounced was supposed to
solve that, but I have lost the linkdue to a PowerMail-database
crash. My backup was recent, but it just made me miss that mail.

Anyone care to foward the link again? 

Thanks!

Greets -

I tried to compact my database from the File menu, and crashed.  Figured
I should run PM First Aid, but it crashes a couple seconds after bringing
up the (entirely greyed-out) First Aid window.  Help?

Weird UI anomaly with address window

2004-09-22 Thread Ben Kennedy

Heya.

This is not functionally significant, but is a bit bizarre:

- open a user from your address book so the window appears.
- switch back to the main PM browser window.
- Note how the toolbar icons in the address window will dim (expected,
since the window is now in background)... except for the delete icon.
- deselect any messages (if there are any selected): the address delete
icon will dim.  Select a message: the address delete icon will become active.

This is odd because the address book entry clearly bears no relationship
to any messages in the browser, selected or not.
