[QUOTE="coaster, post: 973076, member: 95499"] I'm setting up the OS X Mail application tonight on my new iMac. I had been using Eudora 7.1 on Windows Vista. After setting up the email accounts, I imported the Eudora mailboxes from the Windows machine via my home network into Mail. All that worked just fine. Since I want my mailboxes to appear under "On My Mac" and not under "Import" I began moving the imported messages from the imported mailboxes to newly created mailboxes. I did this by selecting "All", then marking all "Read", then grabbing the entire highlighted list and moving it to the other mailbox. All went fine until about half-way through and all of a sudden right after I had highlighted and marked as read all the messages in a mailbox ... [b]the entire highlighted list started flashing at me [i]very rapidly and insistently[/i][/b] for about 10 seconds, kind of like.... 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 [SIZE="6"][b][COLOR="Red"]BOOM!![/color][/b][/SIZE] .... [SIZE="1"]then it stopped [/SIZE] What the heck was THAT all about!?!? :o Was I being some kind of a bad boy? :Oops: Sorry, I did search both Mac help and the forum.....nada. [/QUOTE]
