All my messages come dated, and I can sort them and search for specific ones. Any message I need to get back to, I simply open it up in it's own window until later. Other times, I label it something easy to find. I frequently use "Recent items" in the Finder and other applications, but PowerMail is much more flexible and self-contained when I need to get back to a message that I always know where to look, or search. So, I must really be missing something ... -- Sleep after toil, port after stormy seas, ease after war, death after life does greatly please. -Edmund Spenser, poet (1552-1599) * 867 PowerBook G4 * OS X 10.2.6 * 768 MB Ram * * Addictions: iTunes 4 * WarCraft * The Sims *
