Ah, I see. That's a bit more complicated. I was thinking you were
going for message 1 of mailbox "In", and that's the oldest message at
the top of the mailbox. There's no relationship in the indexing
between the two, so that's definitely not going to work.
tell application "Eudora"
set mRef to a reference to last message of mailbox "In"
move mRef to end of mailbox "Trash"
open mRef
end tell
If I read my messages from newest to oldest this would work, but
what I want is the oldest unread message, usually somewhere in the
middle of the "In" mailbox.
Okay. I see now what you want to do.
If you substitute "message 1" for "last message of mailbox "In""
below, the "open mRef" fails because "message 1" no longer exists.
Yes, because the index numbers refer to two different entities.
So, unless someone comes up with something clever, I'm going to have
to script a scan of the mailbox.
You may have to.
