Thanks for your email, but alas! I won't be able to read it until April 4, when 
I return from Elsewhere.  I'm looking forward to getting back to you then...

When I was cleaning out the other day old messages and archiving
them, I suddenly realized that my attachment folder is choke full
with attachments from spam email. I daily delete spam and up to now I
thought that when I "empty trash" attachments get automatically
trashed too... but why then would I have 2,000 spam attachments in my
attachment folder?

Can somebody refresh my - obviously weak memory - on how to ensure
that attachments do get trashed when the message gets trashed?

Thanks,
---marlyse

Zeph,

Your auto-reply is still misconfigured.  It is replying to a bulk list.

Well, I tried to show you using an attachment, but this list rejects
attachments.

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.

I DO have that enabled, so it must be something else in addition?

Thanks for your input.

Are you talking about actual attachments?
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.

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???

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...
