Mail Saver 3.6.2

Apple's Mail works wonderfully to send and receive messages, but using it for long-term storage of email has undesirable consequences. Mail Saver solves this problem by moving messages into the Finder for long-term storage. It does this by linking mailboxes to Finder folders. When Mail Saver saves the contents of a mailbox, it copies its messages into its linked folder, then moves the original messages to Mail's Trash. The linked folders can be located anywhere you wish, such as with a project, an account or an interest group. Mail Saver simply copies a message without doing any file conversion, thus a saved copy of a message is simply a Mail document (.emlx) file which must be opened with Mail. These saved documents may be Replied, Redirected, Forwarded, Bounced and Printed by Mail just like any other message. (But, they cannot be Junked, Deleted or Flagged). Saved messages also retain attachments, if present. Searching saved messages in Leopard is easy, simply use Spotlight. The saved copy of a message is modified so that: • The file name is the header's subject; • The modification date is the header's Date Sent; and • The comment is the header's To: address (for sent mail) or From: address (for received mail). This allows you to easily identify messages in a List View Finder window. Mail Saver always saves the oldest messages first, so that the Finder shows the most recent messages at the top. Mail Saver uses Apple's Mail as its interface and its action is determined by the mailbox selected in Mail's frontmost Viewer. Here is a brief summary of Mail Saver's features: Linked User Mailboxes — Route messages manually or automatically, using Mail's Rules, to User mailboxes, each linked to a folder. Mail Saver moves the contents of a linked mailbox into its linked folder. The originals are not immediately erased, but are moved into the Trash mailbox. Unread messages are labeled gray and the linked folder is opened showing messages ready to read. Mail Saver Table of Contents — Gives you instant access to Mail Saver, Help, Mail-Safe, (Spot-Mail) and to your linked folders via a menu in the Dock or Script Menu. Save Selected Messages — Selected messages in the Inbox and Sent mailboxes can be saved to any location. The original message is not moved to the Trash mailbox, so you can save multiple copies to multiple locations. Mail-Safe — Creates an archive of every message sent or received by Mail. The Trash mailbox is linked to a 'Mail-Safe' folder of your choice where outdated messages are saved into year-numbered folders containing month-numbered folders containing day-numbered folders. The originals of these messages are erased from Mail. If you have a requirement to maintain an archive of your e-mail, Mail-Safe may meet your needs. Spot-Mail — (Tiger only) Spot-Mail uses Spotlight to search the content of .emlx files in the frontmost folder. (In Tiger, Spotlight cannot search these files directly.)

Incremental Backup 1.1

TimeMachine on Leopard is great. Unless you're running on Tiger. Or unless you have two drives that you want to swap out for rotating backups sets. This script will allow you to set up incremental backups from any source, to virtually any destination. Be sure to read the Read Me for how to configure the script. Released free under the GPL. **REQUIRES RSYNC 3.0 OR LATER** You must install this manually using MacPorts or similar. Why Because the version of rsync that Apple ships with Leopard (and Tiger) has a bug where it copies all resource fork data, regardless if it's changed or not. This has the nasty habit of eating up disk space rapidly. As an added bonus, rsync 3 is faster as well.
