Re: OS 10.5 compatibility
I found out what prevented PM from only retrieving messages messages from my ISP's server and not .Mac on the schedule set up in PM -- every 2 minutes. Unchecking Save passwords in Mac OS keychain returned things to normal. Migration Assistant must have sent a sent an electron or two to the wrong place. On 10/29/07, at 2:15 PM, T.L.

I found the issue before the update appeared, here is my understanding of it, which probably is quite uncertain: - for macs where OSX has been installed for a very long time (e. g. since 10.0) - and where one uses a very short admin name Well, my PowerMail experience with Leopard could be because of some glitch carried to my current iMactel via Migration Assistant, I don't know. Here is my current situation. I can download my .Mac messages even though my .Mac password won't stay in the Mail Accounts Sending and Receiving fields. I have to Connect or Connect Again to get those messages sitting at .Mac. The password for messages sent to my mailbox at my ISP stays in the PowerMail fields. ONLY those messages sent to my address at the ISP are downloaded at the Mail Scheduling times. I guess deleting some Preference and re-doing the Mail Accounts would help, right?
Minor Leopard problems
I am trying Leopard. I did a new install on an external drive and had it copy over my old disk. (if it works out the external drive gets moved to an internal boot drive). Overall, pretty good. I did hit the keychain problem, but the patch seems to have fixed it. I have 2 problems with Powermail. First is that none of the schedules seem to run. I even made a new one, and made it active, but none of the auto connect parts work. Second, it reset the default account for sending new emails. I know I was able to set it before, but I cannot figure out how to do it now. Any suggestions? Thanks!
