There are (at least, if I don't forget anything else) 2 fonts: the one for the viewer and the other one for the composer. There is no global font setting.

Quoted text or the text after signature/mailing list separator (like at the end of this mail)?

I've already heard about this bug but never found a way to reproduce it. Again, if you can determine when does this happen it would be most helpful.

My hypothesis is that it happens when you "slow click" on Inbox which starts renaming it and it somehow gets renamed into "Inbox (x, y)". Of course, this shouldn't happen -- and it doesn't here when I try to reproduce this bug, so something is missing in this explanation...

This is so strange that I'm really tempted to say that this is impossible... Are you absolutely sure it is the SMTP authentication box and not the one asking the password for your IMAP server (which can be shown due to background check for new mail)? I'm quite sure that there is no "auto send" feature in Mahogany. There is "auto save" one but it only saves the message in "Drafts" folder, but doesn't send it.

What is the B> general timeline for when bug fixes are actually put into a new release? As soon as possible but, unfortunately, in practice this means too slow. I hope to make a new release in the beginning of the next year assuming that I can find some time to work on Mahogany during the end of year holidays.

If it did, no, as the settings could have been updated in backwards incompatible way. Thinking about it, there should probably be a question before upgrading (currently Mahogany just tells you that it did it post factum). You may enter a feature request for this if you think it's a useful feature. B> Can I make a backup of my existing M.EXE and restore it if the CVS version B> doesn't work?
