Alternative Address Book icons
Michael Okeh has created four alternative icons for Address Book for people who are tired of the plain brown notebook or who just like to tweak the look of their Desktop.
You can get them from deviantART 
.
They come in four assorted colours:
They are PNG files, so you will need to use a conversion utility like img2icns to convert them into the ICNS format used for application icons.
After that, you can just follow the usual instructions for replacing Mail.app’s icon.

Does anyone have any ideas for streamline the following repetitive task that I end up doing several times a day?
After searching Mail, I usually view the results by date (which puts the most recent found email at the top of the list). But then returning to the normal view means clicking away and back to the account’s In box, clicking on the Date header again to reverse the order back to normal with the most recent email at the bottom of the list, and then scrolling the window down to the end – which is way down there.
Not the end of the world, but I’d love to be able to script that. Any ideas?
TIA

Sorry, I put this in the wrong place!

No worries. Although I have no idea how to do this. It’s not a problem for me as my “normal” view is most recent messages at the top. Sorry.
