>How does one save a message from Eudora to a disk file?

I looked at Eudora's dictionary, but couldn't see how to save
directly. However something like this will work. If there is a more
direct way to do it someone will probably chime in - especially if
this is the "wrong" answer.

--tested

tell application "Eudora"
set thrall to message 1 of mailbox "AppleScript Users"
set sub to subject of message 1 of mailbox "AppleScript Users"
end tell
if (characters 1 thru 3 of sub) as string is "Re:" then
set sub to (characters 5 thru -1 of sub) as string
end if
if (count of characters in sub) is greater than 31 then
set sub to ((characters 1 thru 30 of sub) as text) & "
"
end if

set newFil to (path to desktop folder as string) & sub

set filRef to open for access file newFil with write permission
write thrall to filRef
close access filRef
