tell application "Mail"
set x to (selected messages of message viewers) as list
set y to item 1 of item 1 of x
set content of y to "the grapes of wrath"
end tell
I believe that it's because, although the dictionary doesn't say
so, the content of an incoming message is read only.
As far as I know, the content of an incoming message can't be
modified by hand.
So, it is not really surprising that it can't be modified thru AppleScript.
Perhaps you're right, but I can use a script to modify incoming
messages in Eudora and Entourage, so why not in Mail? There just has
to be a way.
