Rob,
I visited the reformed script and see that you end up working with a
list of message ids. What you need is a list of message
_references_. That way you're home and dry. A message id is not
sufficient to identify a message -- you need the full reference
"message id n of mailbox m [of mail folder f][...]".
The id of a message is unique and will not change when you move it,
but it is not sufficient as a reference, any more than an item id is
sufficient in the Finder without a volume reference.
set _messages to {} -- place holder for selected messages
set _misclist to {} -- place holder for data from messages
tell application "Eudora"
set w to the name of the front window
try -- make sure a mailbox is frontmost...
set _mbx to name of mailbox w
on error e
tell me to display dialog e & "
(A mailbox summary must be frontmost)
" with icon 0 buttons {"OK"} default button 1 giving up after 1
return -- ... and give up if not.
end try
repeat
try
set end of _messages to move message "" to end of mailbox _mbx
-- move it to just where it already is
on error -- error occurs when last message is deselected
exit repeat
end try
end repeat
repeat with _message in _messages
set _message to contents of _message -- not always needed
set end of _misclist to subject of _message
end repeat
_misclist
end tell
