Re(2): 2GB limit: the Official Pronouncement
Christian, This should absolutely work, and is an ever more sensible approach than the two methods I suggested. Plus, as per your point 4), has the advantage of fostering all sorts of fulfilling activities ;-) Incidentally, the Intel migration's benefits really show in large database operations, alas that means less waiting time.

Quit, restart with Cmd-Opt held down, choose compact database. Shouldn't this work? Regards, Christian.

Re(2): 2GB limit issue in 5.5?
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote Fri, 27 Oct 2006 10:09:38 -0500 Anyhow, I just really wonder how many people really run into the 2 GB limit. I know at least one person ;- I have actually reached a situation where I am looking for an alternative to PowerMail because of the 2GB limit. I have been using two DBs for quite some time, but definitely do not feel like having three or four or five... In essence I like everything in PowerMail *except* the 2 GB limit (and lack of any elegant support for dealing with it). Olaf Druemmer
Re: Other Features
Let me control text parameters such as bold, italic, font size in outgoing mail. Mostly I just want a sprinkling of bold for emphasis, but forwarding existing formated email would be a big plus. Likewise, Let me insert images into outgoing mail. ... (Low priority) Might be controversial, but I'd actually like to edit incoming mail, including the subject line. ... That's all for now. Thanks for a really great product (that I practically live in.) Bruce -- Bruce BarrettSee my website at: http://www.earthreflections.com Your first two requests have the potential to restart the debate over plain text and rich or HTML formatted e-mail. PowerMail is the former, but can read the latter and someone will always be unhappy that it is not the other or both or... For your last request,there is already a script that comes with PM that will change the Subject header of a received message without duplicating the message. Appropriately it is called Change subject. --Ira
Powermail 5.5 and Spam Sieve connection lost
Sunday; October 29, 2006, 05:19 GMT Hello list, For some reason, the connection between PowerMail 5.5 and SpamSieve seems to have failed. I launch PM, collect mail, SpamSieve doesn't launch and no spam filtering occurs. If I subsequently mark mail as spam (Fly button), SpamSieve then launches. David Gallanders -- Paphos, Cyprus
