Re: Not getting all responses to my EMail messages
Hi Greg, Nope. No messages have made it to the junk folder. I've checked the trash, the junk, the other boxes in Mail, and there's nothing. It's very odd, and quite annoying.

Re: Not getting all responses to my EMail messages
Hi Chris, Here's another suggestion. If you're missing a number of messages, getting incorrect message counts, or not able to move messages into mailboxes, then it's possible that the Mail database has gotten corrupted. The standard solution is to rebuild your mailbox(es). Select the mailbox (or mailboxes) you want to rebuild (e.g., your Inbox), then go to Mailbox menu of your Mail menu bar, and arrow down to the Rebuild option. It will take a short while (some minutes) to complete depending on the size of your mailbox. (So if you are trying to access the latest posts in your messages table before this is completed, you may find the most recent post is from a few months ago). I subscribe to MobileMe, and a sign that I might need to rebuild my mailboxes is when a message doesn't show up in the Inbox on my Mac, but is there in the Inbox of my MobileMe mail account when I check it through the web interface. For the number of posts that we get about mail, I'd recommend getting the Take Control of Apple Mail in Snow Leopard guide from the sellers of the Take Control series: http://www.takecontrolbooks.com/snow-leopard-apple-mail These guides are very good, and include some information that I haven't seen in other sources. They're issued without DRM, and if you buy them from the publisher, you can get them in multiple formats (e.g., PDF and ePub), and also re-download them (in different formats) at later times. You also get all minor update revisions free, if you check for updates, and usually get a discount on the new versions. Most of the guides list for about $10, but there are also discounted bundles. There's also a Take Control Guide for Switching to the Mac that a number of new Mac users seem to like. HTH. Cheers, Esther On Jun 10, 2011, at 20:10, Chris Snyder wrote: Hi Greg, Nope.

Re: Not getting all responses to my EMail messages
Chris, I sometimes find that a few of the Google Groups posts come in either multiple times or else oddly delayed. This means that I may see a list post with a response to someone else's reply to my post before I see the initial reply. Usually, I'll see the earlier post show up eventually. From what I've read, both of these glitches occasionally happens with Google Groups lists and Google accounts for unknown reasons, and can affect different groups of people when it occurs. This doesn't happen very frequently to me, but it does sometimes happen for my mail. It's only associated with the Google Groups lists. While I don't have an idea of why this happens, I do have a solution for a possible workaround: check the Mail Archive sites for both the macvisionaries list and the ptaccess list. Fortunately for you, both these lists are archived there: • Pro Tools Access list at Mail Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/ptaccess%40googlegroups.com/ • Macvisionaries list at Mail Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/ The default access view is organized by thread, so you can just find the topic and navigate down the thread by pressing Control+n to read the next post in the thread and Control+p to read the previous post. If you want to view the list of messages as a series of time-ordered items, press Control+i and you'll see all the posts, latest post first, If you read the first post and want to read earlier posts, press Control+b to go back (and Control+f to move forward). I think the itemized list is limited to the most recent 3000 posts. To switch back to a display of posts by threaded Contents, press Control+c. This is very handy (quite apart from the superior archive search capabilities of the Mail Archive site). If you want to access the macvisionaries list site at the Mail Archives through a webloc file -- a file that opens your browser at the specified web site location when you open it -- I put a macvisionaries.webloc file in the page of downloadable files for this group. Go to the main page of the Macvisionaries Google Groups site given at the end of this email: http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en You may have to log in with your Gmail account password to access the File pages. On the main Google Groups page there will be a link for Download Files. If you download the linked file, you'll get something called macvisionaries-files.zip. If it doesn't automatically open, use the context menu (VO-Shift-M) and choose the open with option and select Archive Utility. You should then have a small (33 KB) folder named macvisionaries containing 4 items: an RTF file on suggested corrections for the (Greek) Dmitri voice, a macvisionaries logo image file, and two webloc files named macvisionaries.webloc and discuss archives.webloc. The last two files are web location files pointing to the current an older (pre-February 2009) macvisionaries list searchable archives at the Mail Archive site. You can use them as a pattern for creating another webloc file for the ptaccess list. Just copy one of these files and rename it to something like ptaccess.webloc (or other name of your choosing ending in .webloc). Then, go in and edit the file with TextEdit and replace the URL in the file with the URL of new location you want to access. By default, webloc files open in Finder, and Finder causes the file to open as a website in your default browser (usually Safari), so you need to change the default application used to open the file. I recall that, at least in Leopard, as long as the file had a webloc extension, even opening in TextEdit made you view this as a web page. This doesn't seem true for me in Snow Leopard, and I don't think that I changed the TextEdit preferences, but if you have problems editing the file, just rename it to being a .txt file instead of a .webloc file before your open with TextEdit. The webloc file has a very simple structure, so once you've opened the file in TextEdit just use Command+F to find the string html, and then substitute your new html address for the one that is in the file. The new line should look like an html address surrounded by a string delimiter at the start and followed by /string delimiter at the end. Apparently, due to changes at Google Groups, the uploaded files for each group will only be available until the end of August, and only as a zipped folder of all current files. You can use these files as a pattern for any web sites that you want to visit. I sent a few list members webloc files for the Audible.com site, for example. The main difference with bookmarks is that you can send webloc files as attachments. You can also put them on your Desktop or into your dock, and when you open them, you open a page to that site in your browser. These are the kinds of files that get created when sighted users drag the current web page in their browser to their
not getting all responses to my email messages
Hi all, For some reason, when I look at the messages from this list, the VIPhone list, and the ProTools Access list, I am not seeing all of the responses to a topic. I know this because I often see quoted responses below messages I do get that didn't appear on the list. These don't appear to be off list messages. I also had someone respond to one of my questions, , and I never got it. I only saw it in a quoted reply from someone else's response. Any ideas why this might be happening?

Re: not getting all responses to my email messages
Hi Chris: Just a shot in the dark here: Is it possible you have your email set to thread view, and aren't expanding the threads to view all the messages? Just a thought.
