Sorry, folks!  The reason for the bizarre behavior of forwarding the 
precursor of this message to the list is that it was mistakenly 
addressed to "blueprintsoftware.com" rather than the more complete
rendition (I.E. with 'works' in it).  This should also clear up the 
confusion between the time-stamp of my first attempt at posting and 
that of this follow-up.

The second issue, unintentionally omitted from yesterday's message is: 
Has anyone figured out a way to save the results of a "message search" 
operation (under the Tools menu), such that the list of matching messages
can be redisplayed or otherwise acted upon again without the need for 
an actual repeat of the search.  The point is that, depending upon the 
speed of one's system and/or the number of messages to be queried, not 
to mention the complexity of said query, the time-savings can be 
considerable.  To the development team:  How much added coding would 
be required for, say, giving PMMail the ability to "pipe" 'search' 
results into a disk-file whose name can be derived, at the user's 
option, from any of the utilized search-terms?  Then, the only reason 
one would have for repeating a search would be for updating (after 
newer messages have been downloaded).

Any reactions?  Given the general relevance of this issue, I think 
replies, if any, should be directed to the list.  Thanks for your reading 
time!
