--- The attachment didn't make it through the listserv software. You  
might have better luck just sending it to Omnigroup via the Feedback  
link in the Help menu. They're pretty good at reading user mail and  
responding.

--- FWIW, I have similar problems, though things have been getting  
better of late (version 5.7 sneaky peek; v615.0.97558 on 20 inch  
intel iMac, OS 10.4.11).
