I had a hell of a time too, I forget how I got it working. Did you
check this list's archives, the answer should be there.

here's what my older, but working, script is:
<CODE>
tell application "PowerMail"
-- this script offers rudimentary use of Growl: [url]http://
growl.info[/url]
-- At the time of writing, Growl is at version 0.5
-- See the site for more info about Growl, the global notification
system for OS X.
-- Cobbled together by Robert Black ([url]http://
www.robertblack.com.au[/url]), based on an example script
-- included with PowerMail.
-- PowerMail info: [url]http://www.ctmdev.com/[/url]
-- To use this script, you must first have Growl installed. See [url]
http://growl.info/downloads.php[/url]
-- Next, copy this script to ~/Mail/PowerMail Files/Custom Scripts/
Growl.scpt
-- Then in PowerMail set up a Filter with an "Execute AppleScript"
action, and choose "Growl"
-- If "Growl" isn't in the list of scripts, quit and relaunch PowerMail
-- Now, when one or more emails arrive, which match your filter's
"Conditions", Growl will
-- display the Sender and Subject of the first email to you.
set theMessages to current messages
if the number of items of theMessages is 0 then
display dialog "Error - This is meant to be called by a filter."
end if
set fl_Simple to true
-- In my experience it's not a good idea to repeat this if multiple
emails arrive at the same time,
-- since the notifications are sequential, but the code's here if
you want to try it.
-- Just change to "set fl_Simple to false"
repeat with msg in theMessages
set s to subject of msg
set f to sender of msg
set f to display name of f
tell application "GrowlHelperApp"
notify title f description s icon of application
"PowerMail.app"
end tell
if fl_Simple then -- run only with the first message
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
end tell
</CODE>
