Re: Eudora mail folders and "" root (JD?)

At 03:20p -0700 09/05/2003, Walter Ian Kaye didst inscribe upon an electronic papyrus:

I've just discovered (after releasing Message Alias 1.1) that Eudora does not deal well with mailbox references outside of "Mail Folder" -- perhaps due to the "x of y" reference style not being able to represent backing up a level as pathnames can.

Is there any way (preferably not /too/ hacky, but it might have to be) to refer to the name of a mailbox outside the main hierarchy?

I discovered I can do 'name of mail folder 1 of mail folder "::Mail Folder"
...but if Eudora is giving a bogus reference to "" rather than "::IMAP Folder" then it's hard to say where the selected message really is, and the path components would error anyway so I still wouldn't be able to build the right path.

Any ideas?


get mailbox of message 0
--> mailbox "Inbox" of mail folder "<<Dominant>>" of mail folder ""
get name of mailbox "Inbox" of mail folder "<<Dominant>>" of mail folder ""
--> Eudora got an error: File some object wasn't found.
