Hello,
imho the Spam problem could be controlled much better, if the guys, who
are in charge of mailservers would configure these boxes better.
Bad mails (unauthorized senders, bad headers, infected mails etc) should
be bounced already by the mail server, before accepting it.
Most mailservers

The random words do help, to varying extents, against different types

Spam Assassin is not very aggressive (it flags spam correctly nearly

By this do you mean that, if you have been spoofed as the return
address, you will receive the bounce warnings from the mailer daemon?

It saves the Mail as a bundle with a DB for each folder. As long as
you can keep the folders under 2GB - you're OK.
However, it's search speed and AppleScript

I do not understand you people having problems with this limitation.
What is so important to keep 2 GB of it?

I'm not sure what you're asking.
If the question is why is there a 2 gig limit? my guess is that the
answer lies in the compiler or codebase that ctm uses; you'd have to ask
them, but a 2 gig limit was a filesize limit for Mac OS for many years,
and some apps that date back to pre-OS X
Is the 2 GB problem with the message database or with attachments? Could
attachments be handled with some kind of alias system?
What about saving html mail as text to save room?

Mail, not attachments. Most mail gateways block anything over 10 megs
anyway, so that's not really an issue. And the Attachments folder
(AFAIK) can get as big as it gets.
If you Save as Text, that saves a file externally of PowerMail, doesn't

Hi all,
Just adding my 2 cents here...
I'm a simple man, my mail DB is only 254MB so I don't have the issues
of some of you, but I too would like to split my mail into 2 or so DB's.
The reason in incremental backups. Every time I receive a single email
my DB changes and the backup I use

I am not aware of a flag that strips html, but that would be nice.

I would guess that would shrink your message database substantially. 1.5

You could re-save messages as plain text. Forward creates plain text

Winston,
The hypothetical strip html/styled text feature would indeed be nice,
but just to give you an idea: I have somewhere in the vicinity of 100+
nested mail folders, and well into the 100,000's of emails. Most of the
emails I get are plain text already (though that's changing), so

I agree about losing the header data. It still is in the forward, but not
readable by PowerMail's headings.
The one feature I'd really like is to be able to annotate the Subject
line for those emails where the subject does not match the content. I use
Forward for this, but as you point out, it

I mean that I receive about 10 messages like this per day, and they are
serving no-one a useful purpose because I didn't send them because the
