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.

First, I would update to the latest, 5.5.3.

Hello, is there anyone out there that can eventually work out a solution
for this problem? 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?

Thank you

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.

Buongiorno Giovanni,

open Mail.app, then Preferences (if Mail is being used for the first
time, you should create a dummy account, the program will check validity
of data, fail the check but let you continue).

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

Hope this will help.

Georges

Is there any way to redirect HTML using Powermail. Occassionally I get
an email which has quite a lot of html in it but when I either FORWARD
or REDIRECT it the html is stripped.

Ta.
