Well, CJ, I've given up Fan Controller and Lion is now resting in my apps folder; and, the file you need to burn to DVD to make a startup copy (I refuse to say "bootable" is now on my desktop. But, there are preliminary steps I want to take first. When my 1TB Buffalo Ministation drive comes tomorrow, I want to use CCC to make a startup volume of this current configuration and then, get a dVD from somewhere and copy over the disk image installer file to it. From there, it's gonna be a nice clean installation after hard formatting the HD. That might; perhaps, solve some of these issues with parts that people seem to be having. As for mail, it occurs to me that different people use Apple Mail in different ways; and so, they are finding out that this or that particular way of using it doesn't work anymore. as a consequence, and frankly, without much guidance as yet from Apple or others, they kind of stumble around until they find a way that works. I imagine that, after a few days from now, enough of us will have worked things out with these areas that we can look forward to a new batch of e-mails giving advice where once help was asked for.
