Sorting through e-mails

Greetings
I am having trouble with a certain applescript. I wanted to sort through a
list of emails and return the number of people who answered a question
right.

What I want to do is get a list of all the lines of an e-mail. Then the
second word would always be the information I wanted to know. Like this:
haircolor: black
skincolor: white
eyecolor: hazil

This paticular line of code is giving me trouble:
set AppleScript's text item delimeter to "" & return

It keeps giving me an error about "delimeter not defined." Am I spelling
delimeter wrong? I thought for sure that was how to do it. I guess I was
wrong. I'm running on Mac OS 9. But I don't think that has much to do with
it.
