Dale-
Eudora's dictionary and scripting structure take a bit of getting used to. Here are a couple of URLs that have been useful for me-
<
http://www.eremita.demon.co.uk/scripting/applescript/eudora.html>
<
http://www.emailman.com/eudora/mac/scripts.html>
Also the is a site that has published on the web a book that was/is a great help <

Enjoy!
