In Mail, double-click on the bar between the list of messages and the body. That hides the body, then you can select it and delete it. Another option, highly recommended, is to set Mail to display only plain text by default. In a terminal window enter: <defaults write com.apple.mail PreferPlainText -bool TRUE> Then if you want to see the html mail enter Option-Command-] in Mail, which switches to the next alternative (or select it from the View menu) Makes your email vastly easier on the eyes. In 10.5, however, predictably Apple effed it up a little, since it worked so well in 10.4. Sometimes I'll get a message with nothing in it at all, when it's supposed to show a url or attachment, then you have to choose next alternative to see it. Also, in 10.5 this is a sticky setting for a message. Once I set it to html, for instance, that message will always appear in html. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
