The funny thing is, that I've got both their Virri and Spam blockers
turned on, and oNly once in a blue moon receive a cloaked Spam mail
which I send to their abuse@ (and never receive from the same source
twice) , but even when I went in thru webmail for a looksee, there
were no visable Spam nor any messages with attachments to be found
inside a'tall, also there wereN't any missing a Sender or Subject
nor any showing as missing content.
I didN't know(and still don't) what to look for in the long headers
or in the source view, so all I could do was trash the whole lot to
be done with whatever it was that caused Mail to crash and be able to
get back working. So, am yet wondering what it could be, and I doN't
show images in HTML, nor show colors in quoting, though I do have
Courier14 set as List font, Helvetica14 as message font, and have
mixed-width Monaco14 for plaintext, and message colors for threads
also enabled, could I have chosen a wrong font perchance?/or even
any mo-better(more all'round compatible) font choices? TIA again.

And Randy, I do plan and hope to continue using Mail, and perhaps
Apple will kindly fix whatever funkiness there still is in v1.3.11
(v622/623) for us not apt to go on up to Tiger, or is this just a
pipedream wish?
(fyi- I've got Eudora, Thunderbird, Mozilla, Netscape and Opera
all installed/config'd, but do seriously prefer Mail.app as my
set default choice.)
