Scripting Mail to go forward and back


  • Subject: Scripting Mail to go forward and back
  • From: Christian Boyce <email@hidden>

I would like to use Apple's Mail program to do something that some other mail programs do: namely, I want to be able to go to the previous message, and the next message, while in a message window (not while looking at a message in the Preview pane at the bottom of the list of messages). That is, I want to double-click a message, read it, and then (by some keystroke, triggering an AppleScript) go to the previous message, and (by some other keystroke, triggering another AppleScript) go to the next message.

Problem: I need help finding out how to tell Mail to go to the previous (or next) message.

All of this would happen within a single mailbox. Also, it doesn't matter to me whether the previous/next message is unread or not. I just want to be able to go there by a keystroke.

Naturally if there is a secret keyboard shortcut for going to the next message I'll be glad to use it. But I haven't found one yet.

Thanks.
