Help! Need to get text from OS X Mail to Tex-Edit...

Help!

I'm trying to create an AppleScript (that I execute from the AppleScript menubar in OS X) that'll take the currently selected email (using OS X's native email app) and transfer the contents into a Tex-Edit document automatically so I can do some stuff to the text.

Working with Tex-Edit is easy since it's recordable. In fact, I've already finished this part of my project.

The problem is that the email app in OS X is apparently not recordable so I'm REALLY having a difficult time getting the selected email text into a TexEdit document.

If anyone out there could help me I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!
