---------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Scripting Questions From: "Don V. Zahniser" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2007 09:34:41 -0500 Hi, all - I would like to create a couple of scripts in PowerMail using the Find function. I've taken a quick looked the dictionary, but don't see anything obvious. I _am_ an AppleScript newbie/idiot, so maybe it's just me... What I want to do is create AppleScripts using Find that emulate Smart Folders. For example: 1) A script that will find/display all messages with a specific label anywhere in the database. I have a label (ToDo) which is automatically set by some filters, and sometimes manually, to keep track of things I have to do at some later time. I also want to have these messages remain in their respective folders. 2) A script that will find/display all unread messages, for those times when my cat shuts down my computer (No, I am NOT kidding!) which defeats the Recent Mail window. I can do these things manually and easily with the Find function now, but it would be nice to automate them... Any ideas? Thanks, - Don -- Don V.

The partition I have PM db filled up quickly. At this point, PM threw "Not enough space" message. The problem is this message gets in a loop. You can't exit PM at this point. If I hit Cmd+Q between dismissing the warning box, PM shows "Quit Anyway?" warning even though the status bar isn't indicating download is in progress. The "Quit Anyway?" dialog is sent right away by another "Not enough space" warning. I had to kill PM proc to shut it off. Of course the indices needed to be rebuilt at this point. I was really glad the mail db wasn't corrupt, tho. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Boston, MA <http://a-no-ne.com> <http://anonemusic.com> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- End of powermail-discuss Digest
