---------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Cannot open PowerMail after backing up.... From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2007 23:57:00 -0400 (GMT-04:00) PM 5.2.2 has worked perfectly day after day for years! Today I decided to back up so I compacted data base and copied PM files folder to a 2nd interior hard drive. While I was at it I decided to trash what seemed to be an old PM files folder from December, 2005. I ended up rearranging and moving around various other copies of PM files. When I decided to open PM again to get mail, lo and behold, 'unexpected quit.' Repeatedly. At this point I cannot open PM. I have gone back and made sure that both drives have the PM key as well as Sept 17, 2007 PM files folder, but I have not been able to undo whatever damage I've done. One more thing: I finally decided to restart and indeed PM did open long enough for me to notice that the email in my Recent folder was dated 5/4/07 (or thereabouts) and I appear to have lost the most recent mail. I can live with that if only I can get PM working again. Any suggestions as to my next step? OS X 10.4.10, PowerMac G4, PM 5.2.2. I've used PM, licensed, for about 8-10 years.

I'm using FileMaker's Send Mail function but it won't work if Mail isn't set as the default reader. How can I get PowerMail to interact with this script step?

You can use MisFox (in the PowerMail Extras folder) to set PowerMail as the default mail app. This might do it, depending on how FileMaker is programmed.

In Preferenze>Generale, under Applicazione di posta di default, select Powermail (if Powermail is already installed). Hope this will help.
