Alas, it doesn't work here in PowerMail. Even using the arrow keys, all that happens is that Kotoeri scrolls through the possibilities for the entered characters, not jump to the pop-up list of previously used kanji combinations, which are often much longer than the bit of text currently entered. (This is what makes this Japanese text input feature so useful.)
I am using PM 5.2.3 on OS X 10.4.6 I also have Spell Catcher X installed, which might be a factor. However, this auto-complete function works in everything else, including GyazMail, used to write this message.
