I too had the same problem and found the advice Karsten lists below, BUT it did not work for me. PowerMail refused to launch.
What did work was restoring from a backup the indicated folder "PowerMail" in "Application Support" (thank you Time Machine! I just went back to "Yesterday" and did the replacement). Spam Sieve is once again working as it should, but I am finding that with this latest version of PM, Spam Sieve initially launches slowly, slow enough to result in the spinning multi-colored beach ball.
