Good Morning All,
Macintouch said on Saturday :
We're eagerly awaiting Apple's solid fix for this. In the meantime,
we're telling our users to disassociate container archive file types
from any application using something like RCDefaultApp, and to ditch
Mail in favor of Thunderbird. Neither is a satisfactory long-term
solution.
OK ! So I thought i would check out Thunderbird . One roadblock :
Does anybody know how to get Address Book addresses into Thunderbird
... please ?
It will need to be exported from Mail as a formatted text file eg LDIF,
CSV, Tab Delimited etc.
I cant remember how this is done in Mail as it has been a mighty long
time since Mail and I parted on bad terms ;-)
Once you have the addresses in this form it can be imported into
Thunderbird.
The *only* thing I miss in Mail is where it highlights all mail in a
thread when you select one.
Its been so long that I cant remember what it was that put me off Mail,
I know it was more than one issue and I just remember getting steamed at
it regularly.
Now I see that it is some kind of risk to use as well.
Good luck
Paul
