I don't use Apple's IMAP, but that of my College. Using two different
computers and receiving complaints when I leave mail on the POP-
server for even 1 day, IMAP has its attractions. For IMAP to work
nicely with PM it should be faste, filters should apply, and
searching should be possible. That would make me very happy! On Mail
all this works reasonably well., but needless to add, I still live by
PM's search facilities, which remain the absolute top—Mail doesn't
even come close.

Yeah, didn't they advertise them as free for life? I got my
account, switched everything over to that, thinking coolnever
again and the next thing I know it was pay up or get out. That
was certainly the low point in my relationship with Mr Jobs.
Reminded me SOOO much of my ex, but she processed data at a much
slovwer rate.
Cheers,
John
I had a .Mac account when they were free and dropped it when I had
to start paying for it.

Hi. The one thing that gets me about PM is that every time I
open up
my laptop, the dock icon bounces incessantly until I click OK on
each
of three different No POP server on X dialogs. I donno how many
others it bothers, but I know it's constantly making me think of
other
mail clients to look at.
Yes, I've done the same, but it makes me a bit uneasy that I now don't
get notification of genuine problems connecting to the server.
But I notice that one of PM 5.2's features is: A new method is
used to
determine when the computer is connected to the network; this may fix
some difficultes when PowerMail tried to connect immediately after
wake-
up. So maybe an upgrade will help?

In practice this change has, at least for me simply increased the
amount
of time I spend waiting for spinning beach balls (regardless of how
well
my net connection is working). Oh well.

If anyone uses MacSOUP for news then they will know
how useful this is (MacSOUP can rewrap several levels
of quoted text instantly an neatly).
What you are looking for is SmartWrap, a word service which appears in
your Services menu in every application. It's default keyboard
shortcut
is Shift-Cmd-A, but you can change that.

C. A. Niemiec sez:
So my question: Is IMAP ever _fast_?
IMAP is just as fast as POP. However, the sequence for things is
different, so it APPEARS slower to us. With POP, unless you've set
some
weird pref somewhere, it downloads all of your email at once. So, when
you click on an email, you see it -- POOF. With IMAP, only the
headers of
an email are downloaded and shown in a list. Then, when you click, it
downloads the message, so there is a brief pause while it does
this. The
