I seem to have lost my mail browser in OSX 10.2.6
I never used it as it is a Pro Tools only Machine.
Now I need it. Where can I download the file or do I have to reinstall the OS


Also, I am thinking on canning my Web page company as there service sucks. I am thinking of doing it myself with front page or something.
Can .Mac be used as a web page? Can I just transfer my stuff ( I own the domain name) http://www.jimismusic.com
to somebody else?

Anybody out there host web pages?

Part 1: Reinstall the OS or use Pacifist , which is, unfortunately, not free.

Part 2: Yes, .mac is a viable web page solution (though more expensive than some others if your just going to host a page with it) Yes, you should be able to transfer the domain (but I've never done it, so I can't tell you how). I HIGHLY doubt .mac will support Front Page extensions though. Where ever you put your domain, you should be able to simply put a redirect page to your new page at .mac. The redirect page would consist of an "index.html" page that contains this text only:
Code:
<HTML><HEAD><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url= http://homepage.mac.com/yourusername/yoursitename/yourindexpage.html></HEAD><BODY></BODY></HTML>
A Macnn user, Adam Betts, has such a setup .. perhaps he'll respond Check out his site ... which redirects to .mac

Thanks for the responce. Pacifist did the trick.

I am not set on Front Page. If I can just build a new (or have one built) using .Mac that would be Ideal/

Thanks Again.
