    Hi There,
    I really hat some problems getting P5 running, P4 worked fine but finally it seems to work. One thing I realized is, that drag&drop from Win-XP into Mac Mail (I used this very often in P4 and it worked fine) doesn't seem to work any more. I can drag&drop files on my desktop, but when dropping them into an Email it only shows "Mail Attachment" and if you click it you get an error (I try to translate as it's german on my machine) "Error Mail couldn't save the Attachment 'Mail Attachment' on the volume. Make sure that your download-folder is present and not set to readonly"
    Any idea?
    I currently run 5.0.9229 because I couldn't get rid of those "harddisk1-connect-failures" with 5.0.9308
    Regards
    Thomas
