delete and the one below it, your script can move message 1 to the
trash and after that message 1 will refer to the next selected
message, the one you want to open.
message "", message 0, and message 1 are all the same to Eudora but
you can't just say selected message. I wonder why?
Doug;
... but that raises the question of how to I get a script to select
the "next" message, when "next" is a concept that Eudora appears to
keep outside the domain of AppleScript?
I thought that perhaps the "id" of a message was its position in the
mailbox, but it isn't.
It would probably be easier if Eudora supported "each" or "every"
(e.g. every message of mailbox "In" whose status = unread). But it
doesn't, not even in version 6.
So, until then I'm just scanning from the beginning of the mailbox
(that's not exactly the behaviour of Eudora which can automatically
open the next unread message, but in some ways it is better as, when
you start reading messages sorted by date and time, sometimes unread
messages will be behind you).
