I have been using Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC) for a long time, and I am still using it with success. The only time when there were problems was on Tiger before 10.4.2 because some aspect of the OS APIs (I believe some AppleScript stuff that had to do with authentication) was broken. So in 10.4.1 for

PowerMail occasionally very slow - possible solution

2006-03-04 Thread Olaf Drümmer
Hi, once in a while I was having the problem with PowerMail that all of a sudden clicking through emails in the Recent Mails window (and probably in any other mail browser window) became very slow - PowerMail needed up to 10 seconds to display the text of the email I just selected.

My other main complaint with regard to the search feature: AFAIK it cannot be used with the keyboard only (even if universal access is enabled on Mac OS/X). I am a keyboard focused user (you can't beat my speed using a mouse). Add saved searches and I'd love PM even more. Olaf Druemmer [EMAIL
