Thread: Forcing only one Mail/News window open at once?

  1. Forcing only one Mail/News window open at once?

    Is there any way to tell SM that it is to only have one instance
    of the main mail/news client open at any given time? And to
    switch/focus on it when I request another communicator window?

    I'm pretty sure this is what's causing my news database corruption.

    having more than one email/news application open won't
    corrupt databases. Whatever happens in one that just
    opened, should happen automatically in the other thats
    been opened for a while. Atleast thats the way it
    works for me.

    But, you might want to be more specific and tell us why
    you're having problems with your news database.
