Still works for me in 10.4.6!

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />After upgrading to 10.4.6, Mail.app had shrugged off Cage Fighter's improvements. It also refused to acknowledge selections of anything in Mail's main window. Yikes! However, a reapplication of Cage Fighter fixed everything--the hideous new look for Mail.app is gone, and mail responds again. Way to go Cage Fighter!

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I'll probably get reamed by the adoring throng here, but I don't like it. I like what it tries to do, but with the modified icons in Mail 2.0 you have to be sure to click directly on the icon and not just somewhere in the vicinity. This is fine for the bigger icons like "Get Mail" or "Junk" but for the buttons with less "real eastate"' such as "Reply," it makes for a more tedious task as you have to be sure that you're clicking directly on that little arrow. If this could be made into a more "intelligent" setup so that I could click a pixel or two off of the arrow and still trigger a reply (as with the default icons) I'd use it in a heartbeat. As it is now, however, I've gone back to the originals.
Great Work!!!

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This was the only thing that I didn't like in "Tiger", the "Mail" interface, its UGLY icons. I never expected this from Apple. Now its history, thanks to "Cage Fighter"
Thanx a lot
