So Mail is *not* using the same engine.

Wish I could get PearPC to compile because the tun/tap network adapter flat does not work in VirtualBox :-( OS X with no network is useless for my needs, and no one’s been able to get the jit stuff working <http://www.emaculation.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5757> Of course, PearPC is more or less dead, no updates in years; everyone went to MacHacks instead :-/ > I've discovered that I can drag individual images to a fold in Finder, if I'm > patient (Finder has to "see" each drag before you let go of the mouse).

I suspect it’s not ‘stashing’ them anywhere, but decoding them out of the mail message source at runtime. IAC I cannot find any place attachments are saved separately in my mail stores, just .emlx files, which contain the raw email source with a .plist appended to the end for book-keeping purposes. Mail doesn’t work like Eudora splitting attachments away from messages like that. > >>> How do I create a rule to move sent messages to their appropriate mailbox? >>> I'm accumulating mailing list replies and such in the Sent mailbox.

I found a $30 application that says they can do this.
