I think that this is a symptom of a larger mail issue that I fear Apple will never deal with. For example, through auto forwarding from all of my email accounts, all of my messages arrive in one of three IMAP or Exchange accounts. I have a rule setup in Mail that color codes the summary of each mail message based on which account the message arrives in. I use Red, Blue and Green. That works perfectly for new mail messages received." MacInTouch 8:51 AM

After distributing the printed magazine I reduce the pdf size from 30-40 MB to 2-5 MB before adding it to the church website. I have no problem under Snow Leopard reducing the file size of a press quality pdf produced in Adobe CS1. ... I just tried using Preview in Mountain Lion to reduce the size of the pdf produced in Snow Leopard CS1. The quartz filters appear to be available but do not seem to be invoked when selected as the file saving is very fast and the pdf file size stays unchanged. Has anyone managed to get these pdf size reduction quartz filters to work in Mountain Lion, and how?" MacInTouch 8:50 AM
