[MlMt] Deleting large numbers of items

[Kee Hinckley]

I'm very fond of a keyboard macro I have that deletes all messages from 
a given user.

     "d" = {
             "f"     = ( "selectWithFilter:", "from.address = 
'${from.address}'", "moveToMailbox:", "trash" );
     };

It mirrors functionality I used to have with MailHub in Mail. *However*, 
MailHub had a nice option that if I deleted more than N messages at a 
time, it would send a Growl notification saying that N messages had been 
trashed. This was nice for those cases where you might have forgotten, 
for instance, that you'd saved a bunch of messages from that user in 
another folder. If the number looked too high, you could just undo and 
then take a more careful look.

Short of the addition of the ability to launch a piece of AppleScript or 
a Bundle with the current selection, I can't think of any way to do 
this. But I wanted to put it out there as a suggestion. (Is it possible 
to do either of those things?)
