ah, I can see evrything again :)

one more sugestion, add a title= to the From and Subject so the full text can be seen on mouse hover. I'm not for sure how that would work with an href though, certainly not urgent.

Here you can see the difference in the pb layout2 and default layout2. There are many changes, most of which make it look cluttered and untested. The most offending is the addition of a nowrap in the email subject.

the problem is that there is a nowrap on the email subject in the table in layout2, I'm not sure why this is unclear. Did anyone actually look at an inbox with real emails in it with this?

As a side note, wheres the table formating that the "layout2" templates have? it looks very odd to have half the tables crammed to the left and the other half spaced evenly at 100%.

please add a screenshot - I assume you are talking about the pb template set?
Version 2 has been submitted today - to my best knowledge - so please check that first.

looks like it only does this in layout2, which is the better one but is now useless due to the sloppy new layout and the excessive use of nowrap.

i've fixed this before and reported it, I don't want to fix it again. There is no excuse. A horizontal scroll bar is one the very worst thing you can allow a web app to do! you MUST NOT nowrap email subjects! It causes a scroll, this is bad, evil even. STOP IT!

I can't believe how unprofessional this looks, I now need to patch it before I can give it my clients.
