Thanks Andy, This brings up another question in "Feature Request" category. Is it just me or are there others that would like to be able to run applescripts inside PowerMail on a configurable schedule? Sort of like Entourage has schedules where you can configure a lot of things, including applescripts to run on a schedule. This would make my previous issue possible. I could configure applescript to set all messages in specified folders to "marked for deletion" and then run it on the schedule. I was doing the same thing in Entourage since it too could not change online status while connection is in.
