Interesting bug... If you have created multiple user environments, you
can double-click a PowerMail database to switch to it. Unfortunately, if
you double-click the "PowerMail Prefs" file from the preference folder,
PowerMail will create a new database in the preferences folder... Just
double click your old one (or choose "switch user environment" from the
file / database menu) to get everything back.
But the file that needs to be edited in a resource editor to hide the
icon in the message list is the "User Prefs" file from the PowerMail user
folder, and not the "PowerMail Prefs" from the preferences folder...
