Are they? I don't know. Do you mean delete as in 'empty trash' or delete as in 'moved to spam folder'? If you mean the former, I never ever delete mail, even spam. (mail doesn't take enough space to warrant deleting.) I have to agree with Hiro. Keeping the message and attachment together would be very useful. It has often happened to me that I search for some old message, but then the attachment is missing, either because I deleted it accidently, deliberately, or moved it, or whatever. If PM kept a directory structure the same as the different mail folders, that would be great. Then one could easily delete attachments from certain mailing lists, the spam folder, etc. On a related subject, browsing my attachments folder reveals hundreds of files with names like: PGP.sig signature.asc smime.p7s As I understand it, these are digital signature files. I have been told that other mail clients handle these specially somehow and that their attachments folder are not cluttered with these things. Anyone know anything about that? -- "I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent." - Gandhi
