Something like: -snip- >This worked well for me. Unfortunately, as I'm now finding out , when you run a delete script from a filter, the filtered mail isn't deleted on the POP server properly, so you end up getting MULTIPLE copies of something you didn't want in the first place. Oops... With the advent of PM 5, I guess the whole deleting attachments with a script thing is now a bit moot - can't wait for the new beta... Marcus -- Marcus Jarrett, Adelaide, South Australia.
