Hello. My 1st post...

Everything was going well, then suddenly things have started behaving very strangely. Two main problems.:

1. When I click on the icon to compose a new mail message, the screen flashes momentarily, but nothing happens, no new mail message window appears. Same when I hit "reply" in a received message, nothing happens. When I go to close PMail, it asks me do I want to discard the messages I started, but a window never appeared for me to begin typing them in the first place.

2. I can only view new mail in the "Folders" window. I cant open the new mail folder independantly. All other folders I can open independantly by highlighting the folder name and hitting "open". 

Id really appreciate any help anyone can give me with this. Im using Vista, and PMail v 4.51

The problem started when I was in a wireless hotspot using an unsecured network, which is the opnly thing I can think of that was different to normal.

Many thanks!

I'm no expert in Vista so this might not be the whole story: 

1. From your description it seems the windows are opening outside of the viewable area.  After clicking Compose, go to the main menu bar and click Window / Tile and see if the window reappears.

2.  Are you using 'Preview' mode?  Which 'Open' button are you clicking and what do you see?
