maybe we'd like to see a feature list from CTM for PM v6 :-)
or we could ask if there is a thing like v6 on schedule at all?

all the best

In the mean time, hit cmd-option-C, for "Find in current message".

I second that wish.

I have one of my own:
-
I wish that I could mark a folder as read from the "ctrl-click"
contextual menu, just like Thunderbird does on the PC (I have no
experience with it on the Mac but I assume that version has that feature
as well).

I wish that when in the "Recent Mail" window that I could double-click
the Folder name to open a new window showing that folder with this
message highlighted so I could follow the thread. (Or just see the other
related messages easily)

I wish that PM would let me choose which folder to search in the search
box, instead of making me leave the search window to click on the folder
I want to search, then return to the search window to perform the search.

I wish that the command-f for "Find" would allow a search of the current
message instead of all messages except the very one I am working on.

I wish that PM had a Find/Replace text function. Consider that we spend
far more time in PM than in any word processor. We need decent text
editing functions.

I wish that PM could auto-correct the spelling mistakes I make most
often, like don;t when I mean to type don't.

I wish PM could print emails as you might expect from any Mac
application. That is; by showing the Print dialog box first, and
including the To/From/Subject/Date portion of the message (even if that
message was viewed as html).

I wish that PM could forward a html message without losing the html.

I wish that PM could file read messages in a Read folder after reading
them. (without needing to quit PM).

I wish PM supported smart folders (like iTunes).

I wish that more menu commands were available as toolbar icons,
especially view long/short headers.

I wish a right-click (or control-click) pop up menu in list views would
let us file messages in folders, apply colored labels, and mark as spam/
not spam.

I wish that in List view, we could see not only the sender's name, but
their email address too.

I wish there was a toolbar pull down menu for filing in folders, just
like the single message view does.

I wish that in single message view the File->Folders->new Folder was not
unavailable.

I wish that PM supported making new ToolBar icons to run AppleScripts.

I wish there was a toolbar button for "Show Raw Message Source."
Especially in this age of rouge emails. (Yes I know of & use an
AppleScript for that).

I wish that there could be different font sizes for reading & composing
vs printing.

I wish that the spellchecker worked in the subject line.

I wish that PM could display quote marks ' and " instead of 1, 2 & 3 for
messages sent from MS clients.

I wish that PM message filters were as powerful as Claris Emailer was.
If this & this but not that, then do something. PM only offers to
perform the result If all conditions are met, or if any condition is met.

I wish there could be keyboard commands for the text clippings.

I wish that after marking an open message as Spam, PM would close the
message.

I wish that when viewing a html message that hovering the mouse over a
link would show where that link points to.

I am glad that PowerMail does all that it does. Thank you for that. I do
use it heavily. (Can you tell?)

I also have a big wish for version 6: the support of threading.
Another, smaller wish is an extra button for "delete, open next unread
message", so that it can be done single-handed.

Kind regards, Roland

Yes, not a very good review, all things considered. They sure missed a lot.

I'd like to hear more about v6 myself :)
