For the majority of my scripts, I use the script.menu extra, so I've put
my scripts in
~/Library/Scripts/PowerMail/
I've also put scripts in the
PowerMail.app/Contents/MacOS/PowerMail Additions/PowerMail Scripts folder.
I include a space at the beginning of the file name so that my scripts
are at the top of the list within the PowerMail Additions/PowerMail
Scripts folder. But, I don't often put sripts in there if I can help it
because I have to restart PowerMail for the scripts to show up. They show
up immediately using the script.menu but I apparently can't use them in
filters.
