I couldn't use this method for several of my accounts because of PowerMail insists for some reason to keep redownloading the same messages if I check it again from the same source, resulting in myriads of duplicate messages. So I delete messages when I have downloaded them, rendering then unaccesible for other instances of PowerMail that I might want to use. Otherwise, if one lacks my problem, which by the way is not present on every account, your method is fine. But it would be easy to miss out one of the instances of the PM DB, if you break your routines once in a while. PM 4.2.1 | OS X 10.2.6 | Powerbook G3/266 | 256 MB RAM | 20 GB HD
