I've used a lot of email applications and know of very few that actually do
this. Most do exactly what PowerMail does, that is, they copy the entire
message including the signature line.
I don't think a hot key is the answer either. You could setup preference and a
rule (inside the code), but
Somebody was looking for a way to copy their signatures.
Here is a very simple AppleScript that will do it for you. You can modify it to
suit your needs.

even the PM option is backwards compatible to the Mac OS 9 version, but it's
been a while since I tried this.

My understanding is spotlight doesn't index databases (which the PM messages
are in), thus I think the possibility of that happening are slim to none. It
really would require a whole new method for how PowerMail handles messages.

For scheduling, you can't beat cron. I highly recommend it. That's how I do
things which are similar to what it is you want to do.

You're right. Funny part is they still have a quote on their site from me that

You need a mailing list, not a mail application. The easiest one is LetterRip,
but I'm not sure what the status is of that product (I have a license for a Mac

I had a problem with the AppleScript that is used in conjunction with SpamSieve
getting corrupted. Until I figured out what the problem was and replaced those
scripts, Spamsieve ignored all my mail.
Is it that Spamsieve isn't catching your SPAM, or that it ignores emails?

I think it's going to tough going for you in that arena. I know of only a few
folks still on Mac OS 9 on a regular basis and most are on 9.2.x.
As Hiro points out there is a huge debate about email. I feel that many of us
who only use text only are losing the battle though. However, a great deal of

Send this to PowerMails tech support. It looks like it is putting in the port
number that you have to send email through, but the PM engineering folks will
have to help with this one. This info is buried within the code of the

I don't have the mounds of older PM messages on my iBook. Isn't there a way to
get PM to use LDAP information? I have it setup in the Apple Address Book, but
I don't want to have to use that every time I want to look somebody up.

This is one of two outstanding bugs in HTML mail that I'm aware of... The other
one is printing HTML rendered mail.
One way to get around the forwarding issue would be to either write a script or
perform the function manually, but either way, you will need to save the
message as a text file (
And Larry gets the aware for best tech support in a language other than English

The problem is I don't think this is a SpamSieve issue. I say this because the

Actually, this is the biggest disappointment in the documentation for me. We
see these error messages from time to time, and we don't know what they mean.
CTM is it possible to publish a meaning for these error message? Is there some
guide already?

Don't put them in the PowerMail Scripts folder. Anything not in this folder
