I have a 3.9MB attachment with an important file for my son, that I sent myself. The connection hung after 891KB (up to that point it was moving really fast) so I restarted it. PowerMail first connected on me selecting the popup menu for "get now" and found nothing. After this it connects, checks for new messages and disconnects, but I can't choose anymore to get the rest of the message during the next connection. What happened to my attachment?
Server status is empty, but so are all the messages of my inbox. Hmmmm. Considering that PowerMail keeps re-downloading messages if the connection is broken, this behaviour I get is non-consistent. Did PM actually tell my server to delete the message even as it hasn't been downloaded? This is the area that will soon make abandon PowerMail, unless something is done. Fetching messages and attachment is at the core of an email application and if I can't have that, I'm gone baby. I can live with other small errors, but not this area. The silence of CTM even as I volunteered to bug-test similar problems earlier, is not encouraging either. I think it's time for a new business model for PowerMail because the current one doesn't seem to work. PM 5.2.3 Swedish | OS X 10.4.5 | Powerbook G4/400Mhz | 1GB RAM | 30GB HD
