The first time i tried Hiro's suggestion it did not work, but what i had
done was change to Omniweb that was running at the time. I tried it
again but this time i started Safari up then used the cmd + tab and it
worked like he said. maybe you have to call up a program that isn't
waiting in the wings.

G4 667Mhz   10.4.8

Done that too with the same result I had earlier: beachboll forever.

Maybe the difference between us is that I use the intel-version of
PowerMail, while you the PPC one.

Anyway, now I'm reluctantly (cos 5.5fc1-intel is wickedly fast
otherwise) but probably going back to version 5.2.3 cos I'm frequently
changing some of the received emails' Text Encoding. Although a little
slower, but is working.

Thanks for your suggestion Gerry.

I also got the beachball today, while changing the encoding of a message .

I'm still on a G4 with 10.4.8

All the best

manually chosen Text Encoding-bug

2006-10-12 Thread Damienn
I probably discovered a bug in regard to manually changing emails' Text
Encoding.

Until this latest (5.5fc1) version of PowerMail I could instantly change
received emails' Text Encoding from the Mail-menu to any chosen Text Encoding.
But now when I do this, it either takes 5-6 seconds or - most often -
displays the spinning beach boll until I have to Force Quit PowerMail.
It even crashed once, which only happened a long-long time ago for me
with PowerMail.

I sent this message with the crash log to PM Support too, and posted
here in case anybody else has had this experience.

I reported this with b2.  All what you need to do to get out of spinning
beachball of death is cover the screen with something else, like Safari
window then bring PM back with Cmd+Tab.  It seems PM5.5 is suffering
from display non single bite message.  This is PPC, by the way.

Thanks for the suggestion, Hiro, but Cmd+Tab didn't bring back PowerMail
from its beachball of death state. Had to force-quit it again.

Manually changing text encoding ceased to function with this version.
