For what it is worth, I have had seven random crashes of PowerMail from 9/3 to 9/18--ie about 1/2 the rate that Bill sees. The crashes follow no pattern--sometimes when dragging an attachment, sometimes when running an item from the script menu, sometimes when I am away from the computer. I have

I get frequent random crashes. i.e. 5-7 per week. Most don't require any rebuilds, some require sorting index rebuilds. After watching these for a long time, I believe they are related to receiving email while performing some user activity -- long user activities that often result in crashes are

Yes, Bill's experience is similar to mine. I get an attachment, and I start dragging it, and then have to think about where I want to it go, meanwhile PowerMail goes off and tries to download more mail, and it crashes. Very common. Not sure if that characterizes all my random crashes, but it is is

I'm sorry Matthias, but what does the From header have to do with an empty subject header? Let me restate this. I have a friend who uses aol (ugh!). Her emails come with the header: From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I open one of these emails up in a PowerMail window, the From: field has Elaine
