If you use these, great. If not, the data detectors are just a little annoying. If you are not using them, you can turn them off. Just open a terminal window and enter the following command: defaults write com.apple.mail DisableDataDetectors YES Once this command is entered, quit Mail and restart it. The data detectors will now be gone. I fyou change your mind and want them back, repeat the command but replace the YES with NO. > > Click on the link below to go to our homepage. > http://www.icanworkthisthing.com > > Manage your subscription by using the web interface on the link below. > //www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover > > Users can subscribe to this list by sending email to > macvoiceover-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > with 'subscribe' in the Subject field OR by logging into the Web > interface at //www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover >
