Why is this necessary? Why doesn't this extend to files that have been
moved by a script?

Can the following script be improved to tell PM where to look for files
after they have been moved? It seems the "file" property of "Attachment"
still read only as is all attachment properties. Can we please have at
least "file" writeable finally?

******
tell application "PowerMail 5.1"
        set targetPath to attachment folder as string
        --if filter is "FilterName" then
        set FilteredFolder to "FolderName:" as string
        --end if
        set targetFolder to targetPath & FilteredFolder as alias
        set theMessage to current messages
        repeat with msg in theMessage
                repeat with attach in every attachment of msg
                        tell application "Finder"
                                set f to file of attach
                                move f to targetFolder
                        end tell
                end repeat
        end repeat
end tell
