Tannis: Trash messages and attachments does what you're looking for in mail actions, also manually. Though Trash attachments script is handy, TM & A script also runs and deletes messages without attachments if a related keyword for a particular spam is entered in the named mail action's criteria list. Unknown is probably the email that generally appears in Emailer�s In Box. That�s where messages, or spam, with, or without attachments, that Emailer doesn�t know where to filter and file the stuff gets placed. Though you organized the stuff enough for Emailer to file those into a designated �Unknown� folder, that may still be the cause of your problem. You may have to further organize the mail action entries for that folder, or move it to the bottom of your mail actions list, or just experiment with it�s positioning in that list. According to it�s manual, Emailer can handle up to 20 criteria entries per named mail action. You may have to set up additional named mail actions to handle the amount of entries above those 20 per group to be filed into that same �Unknown� folder. Hmm...Perhaps after setting up your named mail action to run Trash messages and attachments script per earlier discussion, position it above your named spam mail actions, but below your �Unknown� named mail action on the list, and see how that works for you. Thus, you may not have to do anything else with your named �Unknown� mail actions. I have a dozen named & listed mail actions filtering, priority colorizing and filing into designated folders. Sometimes one has to experiment with the positioning of the named mail actions on the list window to find what works best for them. I found that when my named "Delete Immediately" mail actions was on the bottom of the list, my named "Spam" mail actions above it worked first, filtering, colorizing & filing received spam into my Spam folder, before "Delete "Immediately" mail actions took effect. Thus all spam, including those with attachments wound up colorized in my spam folder instead. I recollect reading in Emailer's larger manual, that the order you see in the MA list window is the order Emailer executes it's mail actions. Also one can drag a listed named mail action to any position on the list that works best for them. That's why my suggestion not to have this particular mail action on the bottom, or under your regular spam named mail actions on the list. Since I moved Delete Immediately above my Spam and Spam 2 listed actions, Trash messages and attachments script runs before the other two. All three named mail actions have been running smoothly in the order they're listed without problems, since then. I also positioned my �Personal� named mail action above all the others on the list, so Emailer filters, color prioritizes and files that group first into a Personal Mail folder. The above are based on my experience, but hope this info would be helpful in resolving the problems you�re currently experiencing.
