More than a few Mail users will hope that the developers of these plug-ins will update them to work with Lion’s Mail. (I also like that you can enable alternating row colors for the message list.) And Letterbox lets you quickly toggle the location of the preview pane-between the bottom and the right-without a trip to the preferences window. For example, Letterbox lets you maintain single-line message lists and allows you to choose which columns appear in the list, letting you view more messages at once and see more information about each message without having to view it in the preview pane. While welcome, Mail’s built-in widescreen layout doesn’t quite match the options provided by third-party plug-ins. In Mail’s preferences, you can choose the size of the preview (zero to five lines), whether or not to show a To/CC label (which indicates whether you are the primary or a CC’d recipient), and whether or not to show the sender’s (or recipient’s) Address Book image (which reduces the amount of preview text). For each message, you see the sender (or, when viewing Sent mailboxes, the recipient), the subject, and a preview of the message’s contents. In fact, if you hide OS X Mail’s mailbox sidebar, the window is very similar in appearance to iOS Mail on a landscape-orientation iPad. When using this new layout, the message list adapts to its much-narrower width by giving each message a multi-line preview, very similar to the one you’d see in the message list of the iOS version of Mail. (You can revert to the older view, with the preview pane below the message list, by checking the Use Classic Layout box in the Viewing screen of Mail’s preferences window.) In Lion, Mail finally has such an option built-in in fact, it’s the default layout. Each plug-in moved Mail’s message-preview pane to the right of the message list-a head-slappingly obvious layout when using Mail on today’s widescreen displays. I am now neurotic about security, looked at ‘keychain’ but quickly learned that a German teenager hacked that in 40 minutes and wondering how long it will be before some scumbag managed to dump something really nasty on my computer.Prior to Lion, Letterbox and WideMail were among the most popular Mail add-ons. While this was OK to start with (I had Office for MAC loaded on the MBP before I took delivery) Apple now seems to be a worthwhile target for scammers, no doubt as there are enough smartphones around to make it worth their while.

I gave away 30 years of PC knowhow and converted to MAC in 2015 as I was fed up with losing around half a day every month after one of the anti-virus(by far the worst)/browser/pdf reader/printer providers made some change or other to my system to increase their wealth. So here I am, 8 hours later telling you the story with no idea what to do next. Having this afternoon been ‘gifted’ with the bastard popup, I ran a system report on my MBP (OS 10.12.6), didn’t send to Apple until going into Apple Mail ( which I don’t use) to make my Gmail account the default as 6 months ago, a hosted account for my business failed after my wife got a new computer and Outlook for MAC (which was the default but is now only available as webmail) stopped working after she had Apple set up the Mail accounts on it.
