Now that is excellent news. By contrast, if you delete an account in Apple's Mail.app it will actually delete the associated mail as well. The only way to prevent that is to move the mail out of its folder and into somewhere else first. Of course you have to KNOW to do that beforehand. Yet another reason to stick with PowerMail. -- Tim Lapin [EMAIL PROTECTED] G4/AGP/400 OS 10.3.9 PowerMail 5.2.1 640 MB RAM 40+40 GB HDs
