You can select multiple attachments, then press the space bar (or use
the Quick Look icon in the toolbar) to open Quick Look, then use the
right / left arrow keys to browse the attachments; you can also use
Quick Look's index sheet to view all attachments in a grid view.
You can also select one or multiple messages in the message list, press
option-space to open Quick Look (as space itself is already used to
select the next unread message), then browse all the attachments of all
selected messages.
You can also keep the Quick Look window open, and select another
attachment or message in the PowerMail window (if the Quick Look window
is not open full screen).

    and highlights them and allows you to jump from instance to instance and
    even gives a popup menu that shows all the instances in a short context."

Jérôme,

Way cool!

I wasn't aware of all these shortcuts.  Thanks for pointing them out!
