[pmmail-list] New 'color' bug in PMMail

Fri, 4 Oct 2002 12:09:39 -0500

I admit that I'm still with 2634, about to upgrade, but I see roughly the
same thing, Jason.  In my case, I did what you did, and PMMail displayed the
first word in black, and the rest of it in red.  So, "My" is black, and the
rest is red.  All under W2K, SP2.
