This multiple sends (never more than 2) has been happening to me since I upgraded to Mountain Lion - I see the new update has changed some things in the Mail program - see if it helped this.

Most people haven't. I called my ISP (AT&T) and all they could suggest was sending myself some emails directly from this account and seeing if they ended up coming in multiple times. Well, almost all the emails I've sent to the group haven't gotten stuck that way so that doesn't look like a solution. I'll just have to see if it keeps happening and decide how to proceed. If necessary I can just switch from this email account to another and change my Yahoo preferances accordingly.

Yes, Mail 6.2 on OSX 10.8.2 - an update was released yesterday (I think) and, among other things, it "fixed" some Mail issues but I think those were dealing with Japanese characters (which I don't use).

I SO dislike "get a quote" pricing:

<http://www.atomiclearning.com/highed/compare_packages?p_id=techskills_comparison>

Why they don't just list prices, I don't know. It's so... "used-car salesman".

Wow!

Randy, you are a fount of knowledge. A blessing to all who know you.

Thank you!

Interesting situation. Maybe I can find out on a CS forum. Just thought someone who uses an iPhone might have experienced this.

I have a G4 PPC 10.5.8 and am looking for suggestions as to which blogging platform would work best. I am not very tech savvy so I would appreciate your ideas.

TIA

I blog on WordPress these days. It's basically free, but there are limitations. You have to upgrade to add movies or music or get your own domain name. Anything more than basics will cost. Many themes are an added cost. That said, I'm still happy with the free version.

You can use the WordPress app on your computer but you have to add a few apps to your Mac. Basically you have to add Apache, MySQL, and PHP.

This is the Wordpress app:
http://wordpress.org

This is the Wordpress for mac site:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress_Locally_on_Your_Mac_With_MAMP

I tried Sandvox for awhile and it looks nice and very easy to work with but I'm still happy with the WordPress site - I haven't used the download.

I don't know how much of the above will work on your 5.8.

Basic trouble is that I loved iWeb and MobileMe and it's gone.
