Hi Wayne,

So, should I set up a cron to execute this script in the middle of the night?

  tell application "PowerMail 5.2.1"
        quit
        activate
  end tell

Any reason why this might be a bad idea?  It strikes me that it might
break if/when PowerMail moves to a new version and the application name
changes.  Any other thoughts out there?

Of course, I don't know how to set up a cron job, but it's high time I
learned!

Jim
