Re: How do I move a message in Mail?

cricket,

thanks this is great. i had tried this before, but my problem turns out to be me. i was attempting to move a message that had yet to be created into the trash. basically, i as trashing before sending the message. if i run that snippet on an existing message it works fine.

so, i've tried this:

try
set mailbox of newMessage to mailbox "Trash"

on error errMsg number errNum
repeat until errNum is null
set mailbox of newMessage to mailbox "Trash"
end repeat
end try

but obviously this isn't going to work. is there a "waiting until complete" command so i could move the newly created message once the send is complete?

I am running OS X 10.2, and I'm trying to figure out how to move selected email messages (or ones i just created via applescript) into different folders. Does anyone have some sample code or know how to do this?

This snippet will move the selected messages to the Trash mailbox:

tell application "Mail"
set theSelectedMessages to the selection
repeat with eachMessage in theSelectedMessages
set mailbox of eachMessage to mailbox "Trash"
end repeat
end tell
