Time. To sort out what you need to keep takes time. To delete it takes
time. then when you need an old email address or message, to find it
also takes time.

Most people only have a number like 10 512 000* minutes, if even that,
to devote to computer work, of which email shouldn't be the largest part
really. Who got time for time-wasters? There's so much else in life.
Like life itself.


*30 years minus 8 hours a day sleep shouldn't be much more than what you
can achieve before 80, so it's a generous figure.

>Have others seen this in powermail?
No. Even the source seems to be with the correct settings.

>Or is there something special about my computer?
Or your mail servers I guess. I assume what PM does display isn't the
same as the source, so that's a starting point. Use the "Show source
in...." scripts. I think they're on the web.

Hi all;

Does anybody know of a way to specify a filter action that deletes the
message from the server? Currently my mail remains on the server for a
day, but I'm presently having to do all of my OUTgoing mail via a web
interface due to a technical problem. That means that I'm faced with
all my received mail, including Spam, mailing lists, etc in the
not-very-user-friendly webmail window and it can take a long while to
spot the message I'm looking for.

All my received mail is, however, still being downloaded to PM (the
technical problem is only with outgoing mail, not incoming), so if I
could just add an action to the filters that already deal with Spam,
mailing lists, etc, to delete the message from the server, then the
webmail view would be much cleaner.

Is there an applescript for this?
Cheers;

Rick

No need to create any kind of Applescript.

While having problems, temporarily uncheck the "leave messages on
server" in the accounts Receiving Options. It will then delete messages
from the server as they are downloaded. Put it back to one day when
your outgoing/smtp problems are resolved.
