FLASH1296  Extraordinary freeware.

Tech Support was the best that I have experienced in my 23 years of Mac use.

When I couldn't get the preview window to appear the software developer (in Australia) responded with very prompt email; and when I proved to be a bit dense he suggested that we use iChat - so that he can "Share my Screen" an amazing iChat feature that I was unaware of.

He then walked me through everything that there is to know about this great Mail plugin.

This is my favorite Mail plugin. The only one that I use currently is called "Mail FX" That too is freeware.

DANIELHOWARD  Hi, I had widemail installed and then the message viewer column disappeared. I have un-installed and then re-installed widemail but can't get it back.

Any suggestions? Your help is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Daniel

MICK G.  I love this plugin too and was happy to find this LetterBox replacement yesterday after my Leo upgrade nuked the Tiger only plugin.

But I'm curious, it seems to have created a slight delay in message deletions. Has anyone else experienced that? It now takes about 1.5 seconds for a message deletion that used to be instantaneous.

I'm running 10.5.2 with all the latest Apple upgrades and would be interested if anyone else has seen this.

Thanks,

Mick

DAI YI  This is a fantastic addition to Apple's Mail, especially for those used to Entourage. The developer has produced an excellent product and is very responsive to user requests. After remarking how I missed using text colors to filter messages, Dane had 0.5.1 out within a few days!

DOC RENAUD  For those having trouble: Manually remove old version in /Library/Mail/Bundles before installing this one.

It is perfect and highly customizable. If only you could do the same for Yojimbo ;-)

Thanks you for your great work.

DRIPPS  This is a great addition to the Mail.app. With a wide screen monitor this set up makes perfect sense.
