Sorry, I put in 'alias' twice. that's wrong. just once - either in defining
the variable, or in the Finder line. I.e;, either

set destfol to alias "Macintosh HD:E-mail:AppleScript list:"

tell application "Finder" to set theFile to make new file at destfol

OR

set destfol to "Macintosh HD:E-mail:AppleScript list:"

tell application "Finder" to set theFile to make new file at alias destfol
