Hi Russell, no, this program has long been out of development, and I'm
using it to write this reply.  I wished they were still in development,
because they possibly could have had a version for leopard, but
blueprint software works is the company that created it.

PM mail?  Are you talking about Pegasus Mail? I used to love that
program! <smile>

Hi Russell, maybe David and the others can assist with that, I see
nothing wrong with the preview pane, but this is a personal preference,
and is a strong reminder of pm mail.

Hi Marty,

Thanks for this!  So, I know there were messages to the list as to how
to turn off preview pane, but unfortunately those messages are on my
old Windows box, which isn't hooked up right now. Can you tell mehow to
turn off preview pane?  Is it a good thing to turn it off?


Thanks,


Russell

Hi Russell, you are reading messages in the preview pane, by what you
have described, and you can also press enter on a message, and have it
read that way, but then you must use command w to close the message
window.

Hi all,

As I'm wading through all the email from this list, I came across a 
fast and easy way to read email. You guys might already know about 
this, but I'm finding it quite quick to get through email. Here's 
what I do:

When first opening mail, I'm placed in a list of email messages that I 
can arrow up and down through.

I select the first message I wish to read, and press tab, and VO reads 
the entire message. I press the delete key, providing I don't wish to 
keep the message, and am placed back in my message list.

I press tab again and have VO read the message.

So, with one finger of my left hand on the tab key, and one finger on 
on my right hand on the delete key, I can read mail as fast or faster 
than I could in Outlook!

Hope this is helpful to some!
