When running under 8.6, does the HTML viewer even work? I have my Powerbook 1400 set up with two boot partitions, one for 8.6 and one for 9.1. I _think_ I recall that when I first tried Powermail under 8.6, the HTML viewer wouldn't work (or maybe it didn't work right). I copied the HTMLRenderingLib from my 9.1 partition, and everything worked fine from there.
For running Powermail without automatically viewing HTML content, here are some relevant settings: Under Edit/Preferences/HTML reader, you can check 'Enable HTML reader', but leave the choices for 'Prefer HTML when plain text is available' and 'Download external pictures if connected' _un_checked. This will allow you to see the message content if a sender of HTML messages is kind enough to include plain text (without rendering the HTML), and will also not load images on HTML messages, which is one way to suppress a possible security risk. BTW - If you are using iCab as your default browser, and want to view HTML messages from Powermail, make sure that the iCab preferences are set to have iCab deal with the FILE protocol. Otherwise, iCab will open to a blank window. -- Don V. Zahniser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> On Fri, Aug 8, 2003, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >I'm running OS 8.6 on a Power Computing Clone. >
