Looks like this got blocked earlier when I tried sending it to the list for being too long... I'd actually given you bad info yesterday. I was thinking of selecting something in Eudora, and telling it to do a web search. Double-clicking on URL's works fine for me. For your Command-M issue, take a look at the Miscellaneous pane under settings. I think you have something set in there. Though that makes it Shift-Command-N for me... I wonder if something could be overriding some keys at a OS level? Zane At 3:14 PM -0400 4/4/12, stephen e. schwartz wrote: >actually, its a reply to my previous reply.
