It is additional folders I am looking to purge. >> - Color new messages: because bold itself isn't a strong enough visual >> difference.

That option occurred to me, but once the message is read, it is still colored, yes? In Entourage I have unread messages displayed as bold and blue. Read messages are normal and black. >> - offline mode > > Eh? What does this mean? PM stores everything in a local database; you > do not need network access to work with your mail. Can you elaborate? As long as PM is open, it is running its schedules. This option suspends schedules temporarily, as opposed to quitting. An option I rarely use, so I could definitely live without it. For example, when on a network without internet access, you can have access to mail messages without annoying alerts.
