Are you wanting to get or set the sender of an incoming message?

To get the sender of a selected message, you can do this:

tell application "Mail"
set theSelection to selection
set theMessage to item 1 of theSelection
get sender of theMessage
end tell

You cannot set the sender of an incoming message. If you compose a _new_ message, you can set the sending account. See the example scripts at this location for reference:

file://localhost/Library/Scripts/Mail Scripts/

NOTE: This advice and these scripts work on 10.2 only. I noticed you are using 10.2 Mail from your headers, so this should work for you.
