I don't know what I did, but PM6 just doesn't run SpamSieve anymore when
I set it to do so via the 'antispam assistant'.
When new mail comes, SpamSieve is just not launched, and when I select
an obvious spam in the incoming folder and run the "spam: evaluate'
script, its spam level stays at zero.
I tried to delete both my old 'spam:evaluate' and 'spam:actions'
filters, and recreating them with the assistant: only the first one is
created.
Whether I re-create the second one myself or not, nothing happens (ans
SpamSieve still doesn't launch itself upon incoming mails).
Apparently there is no way to see within PM that SpamSieve is selected,
apart re-running the assistant and checking SpamSieve.

TIA!

"Incredibly powerful and useful. If you're thinking "Yeah, I have
Spotlight, and it was free" then think again. FoxTrot is instantaneous.
It lets you do those good boolean searches that Spotlight makes
impossible to do (or to remember how to do). I can't believe how fast
it finds Mail messages, and then shows me the subject line, mailbox
location, and the full text of the message in preview."

Yes, that is how this feature is implemented (but it searches for
messages whose subject include the exact phrase "foo bar"). That is not
perfect, as it will find messages belonging to different threads but
with the same subject, especially for short subjects like "hello". But
it should not miss messages of the thread (unless if the subject has
been changed).

PowerMail and am extremely happy with this application."

There is an unsupported hack to let two copies of PowerMail run
simultaneously, on two different PowerMail user environments:
- copy the PowerMail application to a different folder
- using TextEdit, create a plain text file containing a string like
"PowerMail Prefs (alternate)" (without the quotes, and with no return
character at the end).
- save it as a plain text file named "can open twice", in the folder
containing the other copy of the application
- you may need to press the command-option-shift keys, the first time
you launches the other copy, to create or designate the other user
environment.

When I set a Mail Filter to do an Auto-Reply, it simply sends the
orignal message as a reply, ignoring the text in "Set Reply..."
>:action: REGISTRATION
>:serial: T13-203-00i

However, the original message (in the In Box) is modified, as follows:
Note that the Reply text is inserted before the original text of the email.
"Thank you for your registration!
It will be updated into our database very soon. If you need it updated
quickly, send an email to [email protected]. We'll force an update to
the database.

Is Auto-Reply working for anyone else?

Great! Thanks a lot! I have been looking for this for a long time. It
works perfectly.
