Can you send me a crash log? Crash logs are stored in your
{home}/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports folder. On OS X 10.7 or 10.8, press the
option key in the "Go" menu in order to see this Library folder.

Try to launch PowerMail with the command and option keys pressed, and check
"temporarily disable scheduled connections". You can also try the last two
checkboxes to reset preferences. If PowerMail starts successfully, perform
"archive and cleanup" (menu file / database) to copy your message and settings
in a new clean environment.

Other than having to quit PowerMail after my iMac (10.8.1) has gone to sleep in
order to reactivate IMAP, PowerMail (6.1.3) is solid for me. I am pleased with
it.
When I click Connect to start the IMAP connection, I do get an "Incorrect
account setting," (odd) but then I click on Set Up, Mail Accounts opens, I
simply close it, and all is well. It all works well for me for my POP accounts
and my iCloud IMAP account.
