Redirect a message in Mail

I'm trying to script Mail to redirect any messages I've select to a given email address. I had this working perfectly in Panther, and somehow during my Tiger upgrade I lost my script and now have to recreate it. I know Mail is quirky to script, but I thought my previous one went something like this ...

set msgs to get selection
repeat with i from 1 to length of msgs
    set newmsg to redirect (item i of msgs)
    tell newmsg
        make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {address:"email@hidden"}
        send
    end tell
end repeat

... however I'm getting a "newmsg is not defined" error. Even though the dictionary states the redirect command returns an outgoing message, my testing seems to suggest that redirect doesn't return anything and hence newmsg has no value. 

So how *should* I be doing this?
