Re: Problem with Reply, Forward and Outgoing Messages in Application "Mail"

I opened an outgoing message (using several different methods). In no case did the reference "message 1 of sent mailbox" return the outgoing message. Nor could I find it anyplace in the sent message. It did appear in the drafts mailbox once I saved it as a draft, but I can't think of a way of doing save as draft under script control (other than waiting around for autosave).

Neither reply nor forward return a value. Each is supposed to return a reference to the message that it creates.

That is a known and reported bug. I don't know of any workaround.

The reference "outgoing messages" returns a list of n items, each of which is a reference to the application "Mail." The count, n, is 1 + the real number of outgoing messages.

The reference "outgoing message i" fails to return a value, even when i ≤ n (defined above).

This works:

message 1 of sent mailbox
