In the filter "Spam: Actions" (at least that is what mine is called) use "Move attachments to trash." Consider using "don't index" and others as well.

Or those annoying gif things and related objects that appear when someone uses stationery.. like lines, little smiley faces, etc. My attachment directory is kind of full of those also. -- Barbara Needham ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re(2): Printing email Problem & fix (+ Req for CTM to really fix) From: "Alan Harper" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sun, 1 Apr 2007 05:29:23 -0700 Dave At least on my computer, you left out a step to replicate this bug--the email in question must be displayed using "Show HTML", printing works as it should when "Show Plain Text and Header" is chosen. How long has this bug been in Powermail unfixed??? A On Thu, 29 Mar 2007 13:54:13 -0700 Dave N said: >PROBLEM: >selecting "Print..." from the file menu (or command p) results in NO >Dialog box.

Trashing of attachments seems to be working for me. I have PowerMail set up to automatically remove messages from the Trash after 14 days (when quitting PowerMail). I have a some messages in my Spam folder that are about 6 weeks old, some of which have attachments. I moved one to the Mail Trash, and the attachment was not moved to the system Trash. However, when I used a 'Delete Message immediately' script on this message, the attachment was moved to the system Trash. I also had a few messages in my Mail Trash with attachments, and these attachments moved to the system Trash when I emptied the Mail Trash. One of the Spam messages that I had was more than the 14 days old that is my default for removing messages from the Mail Trash. I moved it to the Mail Trash, and quit PowerMail. It did not get removed from the Mail Trash. This suggests to me that PowerMail is storing the date that a message is moved to the Mail Trash, and that it probably also stores the link between a message and its attachment(s). PowerMail has a bunch of cache files (in your user/Library/Caches folder) as well as the several index files. I wonder if somewhere along the line your PowerMail 'lost' the links between messages and attachments... I am using the default Attachments folder location. Have you chosen a different Attachments folder from the preferences? If you try to open an attachment from within a Spam message, is the attachment displayed? HTH... - Don -- Don V.
