New Ipswich, NH 03071-3922 603-878-1148 Fax 603-925-1978 Hi, I find the way PM handles Attachments frustrating. It is difficult to know which attachments in the Attachments folder are associated with messages in different PM folders. So, since people are asking for new things to be added to PM, I would like to request a feature that will have PM move an attachment, associated with email that is moved to a PM folder, into a Finder folder of the same name in the Attachment folder. For example, if I move a message, with attachment a.pdf attached, from my Inbox to a folder named myfolder, PM would move the attachment a.pdf into a Finder folder (in PM Attachments) named myfolder. If there is already a file named a.pdf in Finder folder myfolder, then PM would do it's normal appending of a numeric suffix to the file name. If the Finder folder does not exist, then PM would create one. I haven't found any script to do this and it looks tricky to do right, especially the duplicate Finder file name problem where we need to append a numeric to the end of the attachment file name so it doesn't over write the existing file of the same name.

Re: Script to delete orphaned attachments?
Here's a challenge for those that are so inclined. I would find this useful, and I think others might as well. Write a script to do the following: 1. Go through all messages. For any message with an attachment in the Attachments folder 2. Put the attachment in a subfolder under Attachments that has the same structure as the Mail folder/subfolder that the message is in. In other words, if I have a message in Folder/Subfolder, then the related attachment would go in ~/Mail/Powermail Files/Attachments/Folder/Subfolder If the attachment has already been moved out of Attachments, the script should do nothing. Subsequent variation is: 3. A script that would do it for the selected messages only. Ron P.S. If anybody has such a thing, I would appreciate getting a copy.

Re: Updating PM's UI?
This is potentially pretty naive from a business perspective. Any producer that does not listen to customer feedback is not going to be in business for the long haul. Given the amount of these discussions on this list, I assume CTM monitors it to aggregate customer opinions. However, if they do not then all this discussion is indeed a waste of time, and hopefully they have another mechanism to accomplish this. If that is the case, then it would be nice to let everyone know. Ron Mikael Byström wrote on 8/11/05: H.R. Riggs said: I would have to say that rather than spend the time updating the UI at this point, I think the handling of attachments can be improved. I find suggestions and opinion on in what order CTM should and should not implement specific features to be quite wasteful and pointless. I suggest what we should do at this list regarding features is to discuss their merits and shortcomings and leave it to CTM to decide what to implement and when. I used to religiously file attachments in the appropriate folder as they came in. I still do that with some attachments, but I find many don't really have an appropriate folder and I leave them in the Attachments folder. This means that the # of files in the Attachments folder is rather large. It would be nice if PM would automatically file the attachments in subfolders with names corresponding to the mail subfolders where the message is stored. This should apply, of course, only to attachments in the Attachments folder, not to those that I've moved out of it. So you're suggesting an improvement to setting up just this functionality in the filter section? This could be accomplished with a filter wizard or similar. What other ways can you people imagine to achieve attachments being moved to useful places automagically?
Re: PowerMail crashes with 10.4.1
I think there are different things going on here for folks. One person solved the problem by trashing the Custom Dictionary, but that wouldn't work for me, I don't think, because my Custom Dictionary is 0 KB. In any event, I was also having problems with TextEdit (which I discovered because Jerome asked me if spelling was working in TextEdit). Not only did spelling not work with TextEdit, but if I typed a sentence ending with a period, a second period would be added when I added the space. I did an Archive and Install, and found the problems reappeared when I installed Logitech Control Center. (Disclaimer: Jerome says that this is not a problem for him.) I did another Archive and Install, and found the problem also occurred when I installed Default Folder X. So as long as I don't install those two apps, PM is working fine (so far).
