But, is it possible that the matter with "Edit | Preferences |
Appearance | Fonts" which Paul Gallagher described is also a factor
in this problem?
Could be -- a lot of older fonts have very limited character sets.
Yes, could be... But, as I said, I've been using these same fonts
(they're the standard SM ones!) for many years, and didn't have this
problem until recently.
BTW, before I forget: It's been a few years since
Careful -- this English phrasing normally implies that the stated
phenomenon has NOT occurred during the stated period. For the positive
version, we'd say "For a few years, SM has been...," or else "Several
years ago, SM started..." It doesn't work the same as "depuis quelques
années."
Yes, you're right; I was in a hurry (to go to my POBox and get the
bottles of wine waiting there for me since Friday)...
SM started opening that 'message pane' when you classify a message as
"Junk"; it wasn't that way earlier, and I don't see any way to turn
that behavior off! Does anyone know some way to do that?
Haven't seen this. If I select a message in the list and press "J" to
classify it as junk, SM just puts it in the Junk folder without
displaying it. Of course, if I open it to diagnose it and /then/ mark it
as junk, well, it's already open, isn't it? ;-)
Can you precisely describe the circumstances and steps you take so
someone else can reproduce the problem?
Well, first of all, I don't allow SM to move messages around on its own:
I like and value very much its mail filter (as I'm fond of telling
friends, it even manages to distinguish 'ad-only editions' of a
newsletter from 'normal' ones!), so I let it mark all messages IT
'thinks' are junk, and then I go through my Inbox checking -- and,
usually, some of its Junk/Spam aren't ones I so consider, several ARE
junk but I still want to keep them, and several others are ones I
consider junk/spam, so I mark them as such with a right-click, and
THAT's when SM opens the message pane!
Also, as I commented in another message, I never use the 'message pane'
to read e-mails, always opening them in new windows -- but I'm talking
about cases (the majority, actually) where I decide the message should
classified as junk/spam based only on the subject, sender and recipient,
so it's NOT opened (in case you're wondering, when I'm suspicious about
some message, I just look at its source, thus avoiding triggering any
unknown 'nasties').

Thanks beforehand for your attention, and I hope to hear from you soon.
