the script:
In Claris Emailer, you can set a mail action ("filter" in Eudora) to run
an applescript, and the dictionary has a term "filtered message" which is
the message whose receipt triggers the mail action. Does Eudora have
something similar?
One question, though: What happens if you receive more than one email at
a time? Say two dozen messages? Will your script run once for each
message?
