Custom Opera Mail View keeps changing back to defult after Windows shut down
I generally set my opera mail view settings so that I can see all my unread and read emails, but every time I shut down my computer, and later turn on, my mail view settings go back to the default. How can I make it so that it sticks to my custom settings?thanks
I'm not sure what you mean by "set my opera mail so that I can see all my unread and read mails", so it's hard to say what goes wrong here.

Sorry, english is not my first language:) . What I meant is that Opera mail keeps showing only my unread emails, I changed it, so that it will "show read", but everytime I shut down my computer, It always goes back to showing only my unread emails when I start Opera again. How can I make opera remember my settings (it is annoying to always have to click "show read" to see my past emails)
This setting should stay set, and it works for me. In general you could use the Received view instead of the Unread view, the difference between the two is in the default 'show' settings only.

It works like this for me (even in 12 snapshots):
* Check "Show read" for "All Messages/Unread" .
* Close down Opera.
* Start Opera back up.
* Open the "All Messages/Unread" view.
Read messages are shown.
* Close "All Messages/Unread" and reopen it.
Result: Read messages are no longer shown and "show read" is now unchecked "All Messages/Unread".
Help! Just started with Opera mail and it says to change the font in outgoing messages to click on Settings but I can't find Settings - sorry so clueless!
Also how can I use Opera Mail but I don't like the way the browser displays my website - I prefer Mozilla browser but when I click on a link in my Opera mail it brings up the Opera Browser and when I email someone from Mozilla it goes to Thunderbird Mail. Can someone tell me how to use that combo of Opera Mail and Mozilla browser and deactivate the other way around? Thanks

Again, you have to start a new thread ("new topic" button) for each of your questions. If it's a mail question, you post in the "Opera mail, chat and news" forum. If it's a question about the browser, you can post in the "Opera Browser" or "Opera for Windows" forum. If it's a wish/feature request, you can post in the "Desktop wish-list" forum. See <http://my.opera.com/community/forums/group.dml?id=45961> for the list of forums.
Reading your questions, none of them should be posted in someone else's thread.
Also, read the rules <http://my.opera.com/community/forums/announcement.dml?aid=1150395> and make sure to read any "reminder/important" threads at the top of a forum.
