Please read my entire message. POPmonitor can delete messages on the 
server without affecting what has already been downloaded by your email 
client (e.g., PowerMail). You highlight the messages you want to delete 
(selectively) and click on the Delete icon (a trashcan). That deletes 
them from the server, not from any folder in PowerMail.

Perhaps you can use this script as a starting point:



e.g. by moving the:

   set theRedirect to redirect m to {redirectAddress}
   send theRedirect

before the "else."

Re(3): SpamSieve - redirect

[Marlyse Comte]

It seems you are using an older version of PM and thus using scripts
versus just rules which makes me guessing a lot... but - here I don't
even know anymore what to guess to help you ;-/

I assume there is a pressing reason for you not to upgrade - if not, do
so, SpamSieve is integrated into PM and you no longer use SS scripts,
just rules in PM and you have to rules, the one set to 'always check' and
the other is used only if spam indeed has been detected (i.e. condition
is a specific spam percentage to have the filter act). There you could
just ad an additional line to the rule itself and have the mail redirected.

If you can not upgrade, one of our AS guru's will need to help... or:

The only other way to do it without added AS in an older version of PM
might be to have the SpamSieve rule the second to last, make sure the
checkbox is off at the bottom to have the message get passed on and then
below that create a new filter with a condition of 'if in spam folder'
and 'message unread' then redirect. I tested it, it works here with
setting the colors of those spam messages to another color (so I assume
the redirect would work too), but I do not know if this would work in
your version of PM/SS.

I'm stuck with OS 9 and therefore can't use SpamSieve (or PM 5).  I find
that POPmonitor's filters fairly easy to write (they allow regular
expressions) and are surprisingly effective, catching 95+% of the spam
that I get.  I have also used Spamfire but abandoned it as it was not
significantly better than POPmonitor, was very slow and crashed fairly
often because it couldn't get on with several control panels that I find
indispensable.

No, it wasn't a script. I added a redirect part to my SpamSieve Rule. The
SS rule calls the 'Move If Spam' script. Adding another action to
redirect redirects all mail. So I wanted some clues as to what to add to
the current script

Do I make sense - or am I talking pants again! ;)

well, the redirect seemed to work in the other script, so I thought you
would just use that part in the 'move if spam' rule instead.

Kathleen,

there are some good books on OS X.

OS X unleashed from John and wIlliam Ray is my favourite.


All the best

Thanks to everyone who responded with this information.  I must get up to
speed with my Mac, which I've had for about 18 months - I used a pc for
18 *years*.

Use command-click to deselect a message. This is a Mac OS standard to
make non-contiguous selections.

Kathleen - 

You can deselect individual messages in a selected (highlighted) list by
Command-clicking on them.

I am using PowerMail 4.2.1

Not sure what you mean by 'when an error is made', but you can command-
click on a line in a selected list to de-select that line.  Is this what
you are looking to do?  Probably not, but I thought I'd give it a try...

[Kathleen Lewis]

At work, I have to use a pc and have Pegasus Mail.  There is one thing it
does that I wish could be incorporated into PowerMail.  When highlighting
 groups of messages for deletion if an error is made, I can back up and
unhighlight one message at a time.  With PM the only way is to clear the
action and start over.
