That bit about Mail wiping everything if you delete an account is a bit
of a horror, I hadn't realised that. Currently I'm wrestling with
whether to stick with PM or jump ship to the more basic Apple mail,
prompted in part by acquiring an iPhone and needing to sort out my email
how about avoiding any possible problem and don't delete the accounts...
just have them no longer included in the fetch mail settings, I have
some old ones hanging around like that and I moved them simply to the
bottom of my accounts list and don't worry about nor think about them.

Oh good lord no.
I'm an anally-retentive idiot nutcase, Marlyse, so I'm afraid any such
common sense approach is utterly out of the question. But thanks for
your clear thinking and

Hi all;
I'm about to 'rationalise' my email setup which might mean getting rid
of some email accounts in PM. I seemed to recall that someone on this
list had problems with Powermail after removing accounts from the
Accounts list -- something about displaying mail in the browser if the
account
it rings a bell... but this was several PM versions ago and might no
longer be an issue (but I can not recall what exactly THIS problem was).
the only thing I DO remember is that you will need to go through your
filters after because what I had happening after I deleted an account
was some
Apple Mail. If
you deleted an account in Apple Mail, all the mail associated with that
account would be deleted along with it.
I'm not aware of any problems in PowerMail associated with accessing
mail belonging to deleted accounts.
