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!
