Jérome found the problem - cocoAspell v. 1.3, an improvement to the native Spelling Service, caused the crash. There was a version 1.4 that might work, but the author has lost his website, and Google doesn't turn up any alternative downloads. If anyone has a copy of v. 1.4, and it works w/ PowerMail, I'd appreciate them emailing me a copy - it really seemed to work much better than the built-in Spelling checker. Evan Evanson
