Mail Won't Hide at Login

[7on]

Mail won't hide at login. iTunes hides at login, but Mail won't. Running Tiger, Archive and Install, Preserve Users checked.

Any advise?

Sorry, no advise. Just confirmation that I'm having the same problem. Bug maybe?

Maybe removing Mail.app from the list and readding it may help?

There have been reports of Upgrade and Archive + Install having a few bugs. Like, dragging QT from the dock and back into the dock and iChat the same will 'upgrade' the icon.

Didn't have the dock problem (cleared caches before updating) and de-adding it and then readding it doesn't work. Are there people without this problem?

Sorry to resurrect such an old thread, but I thought I'd post a solution to this problem for those who'd like it.

Just replace Mail in your Login Items preference with this app.

Mail Won't Hide at Login

Here it is, 3.5 years after this post and I have the same problem. Mail won't hide. Running 10.5.4. Anyone have any tips?

Oops, I didn't see all the other posts. Hiddenmail is still available so I'll try it. Would still like to know if anyone has heard if this is on Apple's radar to fix. I'm guessing not, since nothing's changed in 3 years.

HiddenMail

Well HiddenMail seemed like it was going to work, the blue ball appeared under the mail icon on the dock and the HiddenMail icon disappeared but then Mail opened anyway even though I had taken it out of my login list.
