My experience was somewhat different. I used Entourage exclusively for
several years but a couple of years ago I switched to PowerMail. I did
a lot of research before switching to find the client that matched up
best with the features I was looking for, one of which was speed.
Almost every review mentioned PM's speed. When I switched over, that's
one of the things I noticed: that typing, sending, downloading, and
searching (not surprising given the FoxTrot engine) seemed faster.
I think you're right: some may have to do with illusion, some with
expectations, and some with the configuration of the computer.

It just may seem so. I notice that the characters 'take' just as fast, but
that they appear to delay in drawing just a hair's breadth.
However, there is a very noticeable delay when typing in a new email while
PM is downloading new email. That doesn't happen in Entourage...

Review of PowerMail in new July 2008 MacWorld magazine

last place after
Apple Mail,
Entourage
ThunderBird
GMail
GyazMail
Yahoo Mail
Outspring Mail
PowerMail

yeah, I have left my opinion already there a while ago - under the
comments as "mStudios" - it is a lopsided and not very well informed
review, which is too bad.

adapted from some other script. I tested it and it works:
tell application "PowerMail"
set attachFolder to attachment folder
set theMessages to current messages
repeat with msg in theMessages
set msgStatus to status of msg
set attachList to attachments of msg
if (count items of attachList) > 0 then
repeat with attachIdx from (count items of attachList)
to 1 by -1
delete attachment attachIdx of msg
end repeat
end if
end repeat
end tell
Success,
Jan
