Re(2): 2 questions about 1) POP retrieving, 2) show simple header
Thanks for your comments, Matthias! Interspersed below are my answers to your questions. I would atill greatly appreciate suggestions about Whenever my mail is displayed, I would like it if it always showed it with the simple header (i.e., the show simple header option). But whenever I change it to that option or try to make the setting permanent, it always eventually changes to some other option. to which option? most often it switches back to not showing any header. I'm probably overlooking something very obvious and would appreciate some suggestions. you have 2 options, which can be combined. short headers is the stuff on the top with Subject, From, To etc long headers are usually shown on the bottom (if you switch them on the first time pm shows it above the body = text of mail). The long headers option include all headers. you can switch both options on or both off or have only one of them. I have used both these options but the problem is that I would like PM to display all mail with the short header. When I set it to that option, later on (when I look at new mail), it switches to another option. How do I get it to stay with short header all the time? Thanks again for your help. Ken
Re(2): OS 10.4.9, PowerMail 5.5.3 - still can't print HTML email
Don - Thanks, but this is a workaround, not a solution. I do not like things printing immediately. I usually preview them first, particularly emails, which often have stuff I do not need at the end. Sometimes I only need to print the first page. PowerMail should print HTML email the same way a web browser prints it. Is there a fix in sight? - Winston On or about 4/15/07, Winston Weinmann wrote: Anyway, I am running OS 10.4.9. When I try to print HTML email I get an empty box with a subject line at the top. Can I print HTML email (as HTML) from PowerMail? Hi, Winston - When you have an HTML email displayed, click on the body of the HTML message so that it is highlighted. If you then choose File/Print... (or choose 'Print...' from the drop-down menu that shows when you click and hold on the Print icon) the HTML portion (only) will be printed. No header information. Also, the printing happens on my system immediately with no intermediate Preview dialog. -- Don V. Zahniser PowerMac G4 Cube, 450 MHz, Mac OS 10.4.9, 1.25 GB RAM

I've always left the setting on the default to retrieve mails from the POP accounts one at a time. Is there any downside or risk to changing that to retrieve mail from the POP accounts simultaneously? If it makes a difference, 5 of the POP accounts are from various domains that are all on one server. 2) Whenever my mail is displayed, I would like it if it always showed it with the simple header (i.e., the show simple header option).

If it makes a difference, 5 of the POP accounts are from various domains that are all on one server. well, there is. PM uses more ressources while chekcing mor accounts in the same time. If you want to write mail in the same time, you'd better prolong the period of checking. imho every 15 min is sufficient enough. 2) Whenever my mail is displayed, I would like it if it always showed it with the simple header (i.e., the show simple header option).

The attachs appears with no .doc extension and the name of the document is replaced by ISO-8859-1 that's not done by PowerMail. There's something else involved here. Recently I also received jpg documents without suffix. but I could open them just fine. So maybe you start Word and try to open the document or you just rename it. Not sure, but to me it seams that Outlook is the culprit. Ask the sender to zip the docs. Thanks and all the best Matthias

I just tested it and PM 5.5.3 definitely prints without invoking the dialog box. More intriguing is that the print command actually turns on my USB connected HP 990cse inkjet I didn't think that was even possible. I guess the power button is actually a stand-by button, at least in the USB configuration.
