I was losing a lot of data. I was hoping MS 2011's Outlook might save me, but the early reviews are NOT good. Adam Engst of Tidibits tried to use it and then bailed out. If I were starting fresh, I might choose Postbox as the most easy to use and most intuitive of the programs. But right now I'm back to Entourage full time. Jeff Jefferis Peterson, Pres.

This set of problems have been there server after server (including my own), account after account, PM version after version and fresh database or not since 2004 at least.

If PM is not to blame, then why would another email application not display this problem with the same account and the same data on the same server? At least after some time as with PM, the same set problem would be likely to reappear. I have had this problem intermittently with Entourage, so I suspect it is a server hiccup.

Connect, incoming messages are filtered and if they meet a filter, they are sorted and placed in the appropriate folder in PM. Leaving 2 gigs and a couple of years of messages on my server makes no sense to me. My host has a storage limit and I have clients who not only do not delete their messages but also don't empty their trash. This becomes a problem for their storage limits and I have to go in and manually delete their junk so they/I don't get charged more for breaking the storage limit on my master account.

What I found was that it was not deleting some mail, but appears to be deleting some mail I do not want it to when I move the mail from the Inbox to a folder on my computer. It was an irregular occurrence, and I could not predict when or why it was happening. I have access to logs but I'd have to know which ones to look at and what to look for. And then to know exactly when it occurred, which is hard to figure out because I don't know anything is amiss until I fire up an alternate email program and see a discrepancy. That is more effort than I need to find a functioning email program. On 8/25/10 3:21 AM, MB wrote: However, I'm not sure that the cause of your problems must be related to those I had.

In PM it works always, as long as the URL is written in an absolutely correct way (sometimes there are spaces in between which may not be there or if a long URL contains a manually sedately line break). But the safest way to write an URL into a mail is to copy and paste it from the browser address-field and to put-it between and (while pasting-it, PM places the and itself): http://www.ctmdev.com/support/mailing-lists-manage-your-p.html is much safer (for all mail programs!) then http://www.ctmdev.com/support/mailing-lists-manage-your-p.html especially if the URL is a long one and broken by a line break in the mail. Where I find it not working is mostly in viewing HTML emails that have graphic links or text links. You cannot save common search features like saving a display of unread mail. There is a recent mail, but that does not display unread mail. (Don't understand this point.) Entourage has a Saved Search feature at the bottom of the folders column and in it are default views like unread mail (or Flagged, received today, or any personal search terms you save ) which, when you click them, show a view similar to the In Tray, but with all unread mail, not just recent mail. You cannot create an HTML email. Thanks God! HTML mails are for me the most unwanted mail configuration. (But if you have to create-it, you'll find tools outside PM.) Well, sometimes my work requires it, and sometimes I just want to send a comic dragged and dropped. Although I have Powermail set to delete emails from the server that I have deleted from PM, it fails to delete them on next connection. Sometimes it retrieves emails and then removes them from the server instead of leaving them on the server as instructed. This is important for me when I travel and need to have copies left on the server to be downloaded when I get home. Maybe you have to change also your configuration on your mail server. Login there and check the settings. Doesn't seem to have anything to do with my server settings.

Switching to Powermail maybe
I created a blog about my desire to switch from Entourage to another program.http://incisivereview.wordpress.com/ Powermail has been my most earnest attempt to replace Entourage, but I've run into a few problems. Hoping you all can help with solutions. I'm now on day 5 of my switch to Powermail from Entourage. I did not find my gold mine or oasis yet. Fortunately, I have had Powermail for a LONG time and I had some filters set up, which I had to modify to match the new folders layout. But I have run into a few problems and inconveniences: In Entourage, I can send messages to Groups and then Expand the Group and remove people from the outgoing mail individually. I have about 20 people with whom I share jokes, but I don't send them back to the ones who have already received them or the one who sent it to me. I sent using BCC. But there is no way to edit and outgoing group in PM without editing the group's members in Address Book. Some of my filters are not catching members of groups and I'm not sure why. I sort incoming mail by group membership. Either that, or it is not catching incoming mail by labels. If Address Book is used as the default AB in Powermail, you cannot label an address. Clicking URL links in emails does not always work. It is a known issue, but when and why it works and why it doesn't is a mystery. You cannot save common search features like saving a display of unread mail. There is a recent mail, but that does not display unread mail. You cannot create an HTML email.

I started using PM because of problems with Entourage getting some kind of window redrawing error and freezing up. But I ran into 2 concerns with PM - recurring low level errors on some emails and mail being skipped on the server. I found that when I fired up Entourage again to get control of my address book database and update apple address book, it went online and found some email that PM had missed on the server. I have PM and Entourage not to erase emails from the server unless erased from the mail programs, and not to delete read mail for 2 days, so that isn't the problem, or shouldn't be. Anyone else seen this behavior? Jeff Jefferis Peterson, Pres. Web Design and Marketing http://www.PetersonSales.com

Re(2): Powermail low level error UPDATE
[EMAIL PROTECTED] No, I was wrong. I just did a low level rebuild and the error is still there when clicking on view in web browser on ANY message that has html. When you click view in web browser, PowerMail saves the HTML message in a file called PowerMail HTML message.html in your attachment folder. It seems that this file is not closed, and thus it can't be overritten by the next HTML message you view. Which web browser are you using? Have you a previous web message opened in the browser when this occurs? Does quiiting your web browser solves the problem? I am using Safari 1.0. I'm not sure if I had another html message open, but I don't think I did. I will check these other factors if it recurs. This last occurrence may have been a system wide Quartz problem. I have been having trouble with MS Word searching for fonts on open and apparently, although I quit Word, there was something going on that required a force quit. -- Jefferis Kent Peterson www.PetersonSales.net Flash, Web Design and Marketing ICQ 19112253 ___ Happy is the person who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding, for the gain from it is better than gain from silver and its profit better than gold. - Proverbs 3:13,14.

Strategy for leaving Entourage
I am really struggling here. I want to leave EntourageX behind since it appears to be unstable for me, but I rely on it's address book so completely, that I don't know what to do. I have business emails, groups, and phone numbers and addresses [categorized by labels, i.e., business, family, clients, friends, religious interests, etc.] in my Entourage database. I think its export options for creating phonebooks and limited exports are terrible, but I think I'm addicted. I am testing Now Contact and have imported my addresses there [without category labels :-( ] But I don't have a strategy for integrating business needs for contacts with email [which is the major contact format], and PM's address book is very limited [not even phone numbers]. My work flow is usually, receive an email. If I need to contact them, doubleclick on their email address. It opens their address book entry with phone, address, etc. Can't do that with PM. Has anyone created a really good alternative that works for them? Jeff Jefferis Peterson, Pres. Web Design and Marketing http://www.PetersonSales.com
