Here is screen capture which shows what I mean - I don't see entire message and I must scroll:

Word wrap doesn't seem to work - I got one of my received messages horizontal scrollbar and that is not what I want - also in Show Conversation view there isn't this scrollabar but message doesn't show 100% (You can scroll with arrow keys still)

Message type is:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Or did I miss some option?

Download IS free - and sad to say but that is common phrase when you're searching free software. And ZDnet says also: "License: Free to try"
No one is forcing you to use Postbox - I am satisfied user and use it in my PC and also my Mac (earlier in OS X Tiger and now after upgrade OS X Snow Leopard) – Marko, on October 20, 2009 06:26

For me it's not about corrupted index (msf file) but message itself is corrupted (in mbox-file). Sometimes reindexing helps but sadly not always. – Marko, on September 20, 2009 05:38

I still have occasionally these messages. Some times rebuilding index doesn't work and messages is "gone". Some times message shows fine in Gmail imap but after moving it to local folders it's just (no subject)
I often can fix it by editing mbox-file by hand but it's very annoying.

Here is example of start source of recent corruption:

Message is there again. This part is from another message not related to this one at all. (Not in same thread or sender etc.)</senderemail>

Add for example this section:
<em:targetapplication>
<description>
<em:id>postbox@postbox-inc.com</em:id>
<em:minversion>1.0b15</em:minversion>
<em:maxversion>1.0b16</em:maxversion>
</description>

Similar add-on is SendVia https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thun... and that works also in Postbox and I can confirm that only thing you need is this install.rdf -modification. I also have also Signature Switch -add-on (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thun...) because I like automatically changing quotes in my signature. – Marko, on September 02, 2009 10:33

No one is forcing you to use Postbox. I use and purcased life-time licenses. For me it's always been clear that Postbox is "just" Thunderbird on steroids. And that's one good thing I am willing to pay for.
Sad that Scott decided to leave (or was obligated to leave or whatever it's irrelevant now) Thunderbird project but that's life. At this time Postbox seems better for my purposes and I use and support it. Hopefully some day free opensource Thunderbird is better for me also, but I think today is still not that day. – Marko, on August 11, 2009 08:28

There is bugs in every piece of software - it's not personal insult if your pet bug is not fixed first. This bug is annoying but it's not criticial - you cand send and receive your mails with it and live with it also. (You can copy-paste from your draft in message view area to new message.) And don't forget that you are using beta software. – Marko, on August 03, 2009 20:43

Every piece of software has bugs. For my purposes Bat! is not enough - it works only in Windows and it also doesn't contain usenet news client. And me and other who already paid and registered Postbox thinks that price is not too high. For long time user of combination of mail and usenet client I think Postbox is now best. I do hope that eventually free Thunderbird will rise again but at this time for my point of view Postbox is most suitable for me. – Marko, on August 02, 2009 21:13

I just paid for my Postbox + familypack + lifetime upgrades. I am a long time user of Mozilla-based email/usenet-application and know potential of Thunderbird. I used latest development release of Thunderbird before I found Postbox.
With Postbox I got same feeling than years ago when I discover Opera - then there was free (with ads) version and registered version with no ads. There was and is completely free versions available but I decided to support Opera and still Opera is my main browser. (But I still want separate mail/usenet program and not using Opera for that ;-)
One reason to dare to spent my money to Postbox is actually the fact that it is based on Thunderbird - I can trust basic architecture of Postbox and I also remember Scott's activity in Thunderbird.
I am sure that someday Thundebird will give a good competition to Postbox but at this time I like Postbox far more.

What do you mean by this "message isn't downloaded" - do you see normal sender, subject and start of message body or is there for example "no subject"-messages? I have also some problems with gmail imap and I wonder if this could be same kind of problem.

This happens also with latest b14. I got email which includes attachments in my Gmail IMAP inbox. It shows only text and attachment was shown in ascii. I tried to rebuild IMAP inbox but that doesn't help. Then I moved mail to local folders in new empty folder. I shut down Postbox and with Notepad++ I rescued email. Part of message body was duplicated in a middle of Mozilla headers and that brakes Mozilla headers. "Delivered to" comes "blaablaaDelivered to" etc. Just removing this duplicated files cures this mail.
