I don't know what you mean by "running Spotlight" (Spotlight always indexes
your files in the background), but it should not interfere with PowerMail.
When some messages magically appear, disappear, get read/unread or moved to
another folder, the first thing to verify is that you are not using an
(outdated) backup of your PowerMail files. Select the menu "file / database /
switch user environment", and verify the folder currently selected in the Open
dialog is the one you intend to use, typically on your home's Library/Mail
folder.
