[MlMt] hover over link to view it?

[Guillaume Barrette]

Before deleting your preferences at `~/Library/Application 
Support/MailMate/` I would backup those files. As a workaround myself I 
often simply change the name of the directory in the Application Support 
directory so the application doesn't see it. Ex: Change "MailMate" 
directory to "MailMate-backup"

As for the icons missing in the preferences. I think I saw this 
behaviour when I briefly tested the MailMate beta. I then moved back to 
the standard version and everything is fine there. I'll have a look 
later and see if it's still the case, but myself I'm on the standard 
version: Version 1.13.2 (5673)

Best,
