All other settings in Accounts categories e.g. return receipts stick. All Works OK on PB desktop, same w98 etc. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. open edit > open mailgroupw & news settings 2.open account settings > copies & folders: all boxes are empty and will stay white 3. after setting and re-opening settings stay white (unticked) but all 3 options fields now show emailadress popdowns & boxes twice! Actual Results: after setting and re-opening settings stay white (unticked) but all 3 options fields now show emailadress popdowns & boxes twice! Expected Results: keep settings for copies & folders so that function place a copy in ... folder works! + BCC these email addresses can be used; vital in my case using two separate mail clients, one 'leaves messages on server' second is final machine. I need outgoing BCC function. standard classic theme; did re-install over fist copy; no difference.

When trying to view (and possibly correct) pref.js I get aWindows script host: Error: invalid character Code: 800A03F6 Src: Compilation Error JScript What does that mean? How to open prefs.js?
Do not double click prefs.js file. Use text editor such as notepad to view a file. [Caution] Please do not save updated text by notepad on Win9x. prefs.js is written in UTF-8 but notepad of Win98 does not support UTF-8. This means if you save updated prefs.js by notepad of Win-98, prefs.js will be damaged.
