I hope the whole IMAP with mail is resolved.

I'm using IMAP with Gmail and haven't noticed any significant issues. To what do you refer?
Carl said 8:42PM on 5-27-2008
i am using mail from cpanel and cant seem to get it to work with imap on leopard mail

My only IMAP problem is that I always have 1 outgoing mail in my outbox, and I can't seem to do anything about it. When I erase the message in there, another one pops up.
Anyone know anything about how to solve it? I've all but given up.

I hope I can go INTO subsequent folders in stacks when viewed as a grid. Moving items in a stack would also be appreciated.

How about right clicking stack items? And as for that, spotlight items, as well!
Gilbert Tang said 8:24PM on 5-27-2008
The two comments here are absolutely golden. Being able to manage Stacks in the same way one could manage menus in *shudder* Windows would make them incredibly useful.
I would also love to be able to drag things directly out of Spotlight searches without having to open the Finder and essentially re-locate it.

If you hold down option [Apple] in Spotlight searches before clicking on the item, it will open a finder window with the item selected.

I'm new to the Mac and thought I'd try this. I had to use the "Command" key, not "Option" as you described.

You can also click on its icon in the Dock to locate it in the finder. Hope you're enjoying your mac!

I use IMAP for work email and GMAIL and havn't had any problems, of which you refer, it may just be due to the server setup of mail configuration.
André said 10:55AM on 5-28-2008
Yeah, sorry. My mistake. I meant to say command :)
Brandon Martinez said 4:27PM on 5-28-2008
I've always known you can command-click to show the location, that's expected behavior. However, right clicking is also expected behavior (as is dragging) that isn't available (that I want!).
Also, command-clicking adds an extra step (not very Mac-like if you ask me) that shouldn't be needed - if I want to right click an item, I don't want to open it's Finder location first, then right click.

Does anyone know if this update will ripple over to the OS X Leopard Server Platform?

god i hope so. i really need working AD integration quickly for more services...
here's to also hoping the MCX glitchyness is solved too. I have machines that willy-nilly ignore pushed preferences

About time, the graphics drivers for the 8800GT need to be updated badly. Basic animations get very sluggish :(

100% of Macbook or Macbook Pro owners I know, including myself, who have Leopard have had issues with #4 (about 15 people). They also have issues with waking up in general. I hope this is fixed.
PS - The reason I know this is because I'm usually the one they come to with their computer problems.

Have the problems been kernel panics (the gray please power-off screens)?
I've been getting those alot, although mostly only at home with my Airport Extreme N base station.
PSM said 12:42AM on 5-28-2008
I too have HUGE wakeup issues with my MBP on Leopard, which seem to be related to Airport in some way. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one still having problems. Hopefully a fix is really on the way this time.
