Can you send me a crash log? Crash logs are stored in your
{home}/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports folder. On OS X 10.7 or 10.8, press the
option key in the Go menu in order to see this Library folder.

In almost every case, the crash occurs when moving a mail item it a folder. Most of those moves are from In Tray, of course. Other than having to quit PowerMail after my iMac (10.8.1) has gone to sleep in order to reactivate IMAP, PowerMail (6.1.3) is solid for me. I am pleased with it. When I click Connect to start the IMAP connection, I do get an Incorrect account setting, (odd) but then I click on Set Up, Mail Accounts opens, I simply close it, and all is well. It all works well for me for my POP accounts and my iCloud IMAP account. Tom Miller .. The only time we see the middle of the road is as we run from side to side. R.O.Clark ...

Maybe you tried to move them to another disk or partition, or outside of your home folder if you are using FileVault. You can create a sub-folder in your PowerMail Files and moves the database files there to disable them. All seems to be well, even managed to get my PM Address Book installed. I have not tried to import the database from the old PM Files as I suspect there's a problem there somewhere. Messages that have been successfully exported are almost certainly safe to import in a new database. Jérôme - PowerMail Engineering - As someone who's in the business of receiving and (ideally) responding to 50 - 100 emails a day, through three different accounts, using three different ports. As, someone who's in a constant state of disorganzation, always losing, confusing, and misusing. As someone who had to jump between OS9 and OSX machines for much longer than it was in vogue, and needed his email to jump with him. As a Mac user who's email is his bread and butter, and sometimes needs it to work better than he does. I find Powermail to be simply invaluable. J.

Jerome: Followed your suggestions but was totally unable to remove single items from the PowerMail Files folder: they didn't remove, just copied. Anyway, was able to save some important PM folders before PM quit again and would not reopen. Then, switched User Environment and set up again. All seems to be well, even managed to get my PM Address Book installed. I have not tried to import the database from the old PM Files as I suspect there's a problem there somewhere. Would you suggest I trash old folders, or just ignore them?
