Re: Searching a Mail message



Why not just use Spotlight? I can think of some reasons why you can't, but I need to know more.

Are your messages stored within a mail client?
Or are they simply documents in a Finder folder?
What is the file extension of the message files?

In case you are curious ... Spotlight cannot search contents of .emlx files.
... but there is a work-around in AppleScript.

Hi,
I'm after getting the content of a Mail message and want to search the content for an email address (email@hidden). Are there any helper methods in AppleScript in which to do this. I already tried parsing the message content but that didnt seem to work.


Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Jeff
