Display Mail's mailbox sizes in the status bar
Authored by: morespace54 on Apr 08, '08 12:36:48PM

You have to enable (open) Activity Viewer (under the WINDOW menu, I think, I"m not in front of my OS 10.5 right now).
Instead of having a floating window, you will see it at the bottom left corner of Mail, just like the "Now Playing" window in iTunes.

Display Mail's mailbox sizes in the status bar
Authored by: DR10TU4 on Apr 09, '08 09:48:07AM

Dear morespace54,

Thank you so much for your rapid reply! The "Activity" window is a separate one, and, does indeed, show the functionality I was hoping to find. However, is there a way to integrate this dynamic info into the body of the full mail display? The "iTunes-like" activity monitor in the lower left-hand corner, for some reason, does NOT show the "search for new mail" real-time info as does the floating window.

Also, do you know of a way to enable the display bar to show the total size of the given mailbox?

Again, thank you so much for your time and info!! This is a wonderful service, and, I'm glad that you took the time to help me!

Sincerely,
DR10TU4
