Whilst on the subject of Mac Mail though not on Deleting: When I start up the computer the internet automatically starts connecting and that's it. On my older (pre-OS X) system one had the option of deciding what if any program would start up - does anyone know if this can be changed in OS X and, if so, how? Secondly in the older system one could have the internet connection automatically open the Mail program (Outlook Express). Can this be done in OS X and, if so, how?
