Hi, Dale; I understand where you're coming from. As much as I love my husband, I'm definitely not interested in his email lists and he's not interested in mine. The web sites we each visit, also, are totally different, and before Jaguar we had to maintain a real tight organization of our "favorites" lists (I put all mine in my folder, and he had a folder for all his favorites). So we're having a great time each setting up our own log-ins and preferences under Jaguar. It's like having two different computers, each specifically adjusted how we each like it, and neither interfering with the other. We set up both users with administrative privileges and so far haven't had any problems. Since then, I have forgotten his log-in password, and he has forgotten mine. Cool. We used Eudora before for email, and did the "preference file hack" that someone here mentioned, so we each had our separate email. There are some things about Eudora that I miss: the quick recipient list, for one. But the junk mail filter of mail.app more than makes up for that loss, so I'll stick with mail.app for now. My husband may go back to Eudora, I don't know. He can do whatever he wants to do with his side of the computer. Enjoy! -- ******************** Never be afraid to try something new.
