Sidewinder now supports PowerMail. Has anyone tried it? Is it worth $19.95?

I haven't used Sidewinder, but I use SpamX and it works great. If there is any 
downside, reporting open relays, and worms to ISPs rarely seems to make a dent 
in the amount of SPAM. Most of the SPAM today are worms that Windows folks are 
running without knowing it. A recent EU study said that nearly 80% of the 
traffic in the EU was SPAM. I find that very troublesome. I can upgrade to 
sidewinderx for $10, since I own SpamX, so I might just do this. This way it 
removes one of the steps I have to manually perform.

I have been looking at the big brother to it, [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
http://www.emailcrx.com/Welcome.html

What looks cool about it is that you can block by countries. For  
example, I don't think I will ever get a legitimate email from  
Czechoslovakia   or Russia, so I can block those countries and stop  
20% of my spam immediately.


Good luck,
Justin

[EMAIL PROTECTED] is great for filtering, but I much prefer SpamSieve (they have
slightly different approaches).  Sidewinder focuses on reporting, and if
you're interested in reporting is more powerful than [EMAIL PROTECTED] for that
purpose.

It's preferable to do thatw at the server level - the forwarding service

Bill,

how does your Attachments folder look like?
It should be in your PowerMail Files folder.
What happens, when you let show the attachment in the Finder?
Could it be that your attachments are only partly downloaded or do you
use IMAP?

little orange and yellow dots

2006-12-06 Thread Bruce Barrett
Hi,
And now for something completely picky...
As I edit new emails, especially longer ones (say, starting with a large
amount of pasted text)
little dots appear at the far left of the text input area, just before
or touching the 1st 
text column.

-- here :-)

Sometimes 1 dot, sometimes 2. Looks like kind of like debugging info. They 
disappear if you resize the window.

How come?

Problem solved. What was happening was that the attachments were being
transferred to an invisible folder on the hard drive. Norton 8 fixed it!

What you are seeing is most likely the symbol used to indicate the text
to which you are replying.  I don't get dots, rather I get chevrons 
or in other packages, solid lines or bars.

The reason some might disappear is that by resizing the window, you are
changing the wrap point, most likely.

As an example, my copy of T-Bird shows your example text with a solid
bar as the quote character, while in this reply, it has been converted
to a series of chevrons.

Other than that, I can't imagine what you are seeing.

Hi,
Actually they are 1-pixel dots, nearly invisible, they look like 
redraw artifacts. I get chevrons  as well. The little dots
don't move on resize, they completely disappear.
Oh, and they don't disappear on window minimize/restore.

Mostly I just ingnore them, but somehow today they're bothering me -
very odd indeed.

as expected, not the slightest problem in getting to the first aid
