Here's a simple script that deletes the message, which has the effect of
moving the attachment to the trash. You can run it (after you save it a
compiled script in the Scripts Folder in the PowerMail User Folder using
this filter criterion:
<Other Field> Content-Type <Contains> multipart/mixed
tell application "PowerMail"
set messageList to current messages
repeat with MyMessage in messageList
if attachments of MyMessage exists then
set attachList to MyMessage's attachments
ignoring case
repeat with theAttach in attachList
set itsName to theAttach's name
if itsName ends with ".pif" then delete
MyMessage
end repeat
end ignoring
end if
end repeat
end tell
