How do you identify the message that is in reply to a received
message? Here's an example from emailer that files an outgoing
reply with message it is in reply to:
This is another case of functionality that Mail doesn't have
(tracking replies to received messages), so it's not available via
Applescript. Should that become a feature in Mail, it will become a
feature of our Applescript dictionary.
In emailer, it's accessible only through Applescript; unfortunately,
it's a property rather than an element, so only the most recent reply
is tracked. Ditto for forwards and redirects, BTW.
We could certainly do it in Applescript only, but it's so important
that we'd be silly not to also do it in the UI.
