Hi all:
Is it possible to have an applescript that will select *all* mail in the
spam folder and move it to the trash?
cheers,
Chris

While I do think that is possible, why not Cmd+A > Cmd+[DEL]?

You should not need to write a script to do this.
Why not simply modify the "Spam: actions" filter (under Setup/Mail
Filters...) to move spam to the Mail Trash folder. (This assumes you
also have SpamSieve installed.) I have done this, and have also set the
Trash to be deleted automatically after a couple of days. :-)

Subject: Powermail index/search error, any help?
From: "Christopher Plummer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

On Intel MacBook w/2 Gig RAM and OS X ver. 10.4.9, PowerMail version
5.5.2, Message db 112 Mb, Message db index 33 Mb, Message db Spotlight
cache 100 Mb.
I've had an annoying problem with PowerMail for about a year, and though
I've written directly to Support several times, I can't seem to elicit
any response.
It seems like a problem with the index being corrupted, presumably by
some particular badly formatted message? I have tried the usual
techniques, trashing the index and rebuilding it, and also running the
complete set of startup rebuild functions. In fact the STL error occurs
after a complete rebuild of the index of (16,000?) messages when it
tries to optimize the index.
The error(s) don't prevent me from using Powermail, and after clicking
through the error dialogs it seems that the Find function is working...
When Powermail launches -
An STL exception occurred Class=std; what=6; when = 100
When initiating a Find from within Powermail -
A memory error occurred: Class=std; what=1; when =100
I imagine that starting over with a brand new mail file would be a
solution - if you could call it that - but does anyone else have any
ideas? Such as how to locate the offending message?
If I have to start over, I am going to seriously question why I want to
stick with PowerMail...
Thanks in advance,
- Chris

I'm a new user of PowerMail and Mac and need some help.
My problem: I receive every message twice. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Franziska,
Welcome. :)
The most obvious thing to check is that you don't have the account set
up twice. It's easily done.
Look in Setup>Accounts> and make sure you only have one entry per e-mail
address.
Best regards

Hi Derry
Thank you for your quick response! ... and you were right, the email-
account was set up twice, because there exists an "underaccount". I
deleted it and now everything works fine.

Try to export "your entire mail database" to the PowerMail Exchange
format. As there is probably a corrupted message, this could fail.
In this case, you can take a look at the exported file with a text
editor (or import it to a new database - menu file / database / new user
environment) to determine which message could be corrupted. Messages are
exported folder by folder, and inside a given folder, by date saved. The
corrupted message should be the message following the last exported message.
In case you can't get rid of the corrupted message (it could cause an
error when moving to the trash or using the "delete message immediately"
script), you can export your messages one or multiple folders at a time
(instead of exporting "the entire message database), or multiple
messages at a time for the folder that you can't export without an error.
Then you can create a new user environment and import your messages
there. You can then copy the old "Setup Database" file to copy your
accounts, filters etc to the new user environment. Note that you will
need to verify all your filter that move messages to a specific folder,
as the folder reference will be changed in the new user environment.
Also, if you leave the messages on the POP server, you will re-download
the message still present on the server; to avoid this, you can "purge
retrieved messages", from the accounts dialog, on your old user
environment, before switching to the new one.

"First, PowerMail downloads mail in about half the time of Entourage.
Second, it's rock solid. Hasn't crashed once (Entourage crashed
regularly). Third, searches are lightening fast, very impressive
facility. Fourth, it has a very nice filtering capability, at least
as strong as Entourage and probably stronger (my rules sets are fairly
straightforward). Fifth, it auto syncs with AddressBook without the
need for external scripts like in Entourage."
