Maybe because that's how Claris EMailer did it?  ;-)

Very possible. I moved from Emailer to PM when I switched to OS X.

Again, this has worked well for me.

I'm using 10.5.1 on both my Intel Core Duo and my eMac. Since upgrading,
PowerMail no longer connects every 5 minutes as I have it set to do in
Mail Scheduling. I was wondering if any other Leopard users have
discovered this problem with Mail Scheduling and if there is a solution.

PowerMail Engineering asked:

Is this any better or worse than manually deleting the file "Message
Database index"?

Well, I unlearned this gruesome habit a long time ago and decided way
ahead of OS X to separate apps from data. I had my Emailer folder also
in my data area already under OS 9, not in the apps folder.
However, the OS X user folder was something that I hadn't thought of
then and I adopted this sound approach during the public betas of OS X.
I just prefer to not intermingle different types of stuff together,
because I want to be able to toss out apps without much detailed thought
on what to keep or not. Apps can be reinstalled, data cannot (unless you
keep minute backups). I want all my data in one place, so I don't have
to tell my backup app just where I put my files this time. Under one
point (the user folder), no matter where I put stuff it *will* be backed
up (though I don't backup caches and the like). If I make new folder, it
will be backed up. If I move stuff it will be backed up.

I usually put things I want to keep that the app uses under the name of
the app in question in my users library folder, sometimes under
application support or in Powermail's case directly under my user home
folder ie "~/PowerMail Files". The stuff that I actually produce myself
I always put in appropriately named subject folders under "~/Documents"
except for some music stuff that go directly in to the music folder and
pictures (guess).

I can see the value of keeping app and data together if you move your
files around a lot. But except for the knowledgeable user, like Tom, for
which I'm sure this arrangement works fine, I see little value in
widespread use of this approach.

I have 13 accounts checking every 2 minutes, and I had never encountered
any problem with 10.5 now 10.5.1.  The only problem I have is PM is
sucking vm badly.  My swapfile count goes up to 6 by PM alone easily,
and it kinda sux.

My usual DAW apps are catching up so I can stay on Leopard longer than
before.  My issue with it right now is iChat seems to be unstable when
AirPort.  It even froze when I was sending iChat crash log to Apple.
Oh, I did loose iLok auth on 2 iLoks, and I think I can blame on
Leopard, but can't be too sure about this one.
