I don't have any ideas on how to run two versions of PM at the same time - but I think this illustrates why the 2 GB limit is a serious problem that needs to be fixed properly. Splitting my email database into two (or more) environments seems like a poor workaround to me, because it means that I have to switch environments every time I want to search through my email. Running two copies of PM simultaneously might make this slightly easier, but I still have to search twice. Currently, the only plan that I have is either (1) switch to another email program entirely (probably Apple Mail) or (2) use Apple Mail for mailing list emails (some of which are high-volume), and continue using PowerMail for other emails. You might be able to continue using PowerMail for a bit longer if you compact your database regularly (I currently have to do this twice a week). Jeremy
