According to "What's New in Mail?":
"Rules
Additional criteria and more actions. Run an AppleScript, act only on
senders that are in Address Book, and automatically flag messages.
You can use multiple critera to get even more sophisticated."
I'm having trouble setting the "transfer message" portion (amongst
other things):
I had taken the above quote to mean that one can "run an AppleScript"
as the action associated with a rule, as in Outlook Express. In fact, I
can't see any other way to interpret the above. There seems to be no
way to do this (nothing in the dictionary seems to allow it nor does
the application UI).
tell application "Mail"
set rue to make at end new rule with properties {name:"rue"}
tell rue
set is enabled to true
set should transfer message to true
set rc to make at beginning new rule condition with properties
{type:sender is in my address book}
set color message to purple
end tell
end tell
When I insert a line to set "transfer message", I get
NSUnknownKeyScriptError. I assume that's what you're seeing.
Thanks for the feedback. Still hoping to get a "works for me."
(Mail hung the first time I tried to send this. Sorry if it's is a
duplicate.)
