Title: Scripting Mail, differences between v 1.0 and 2.0 ?

Hi all,

I’m trying to get all the incoming mail in both Mail 1.0 (on a Panther running server) and Mail 2.0 (on a my dev. PowerBook) to go through an AppleScript. This is the piece of code I’v picked up for the time being, but it only seems to work correctly with selected emails, not when I ask a rule directed at all incoming emails to run applescript (which I imagine is the way things should be done, right ?) - in this case, nothing happens at all.


using terms from application "Mail"
    
    on perform mail action with messages incomingMessages
       try
           tell application "Mail"
                repeat with msg in incomingMessages
                   set contentString to (content of msg) as string
                   set theSubject to subject of msg
                   tell me to set eventData to textToList(contentString, tab)
                end repeat
           end tell
           set EventDate to item 1 of eventData
           set EventStartTime to item 2 of eventData
           set EventEndTime to item 3 of eventData
           set EventRecurrence to item 4 of eventData
           set Photographer to item 5 of eventData
           set JobNr to item 6 of eventData
           set JobStatus to item 7 of eventData
           set eventName to item 8 of eventData
           set ClientFirstName to item 8 of eventData
           set ClientLastName to item 9 of eventData
           set ClientCellPhone to item 10 of eventData
           set EventDescription to item 11 of EventDate

            --TESTING (comment out when debugging done)
           display dialog Photographer & space & ClientLastName & space & JobNr
           --TESTING (comment out when debugging done)

        on error mistake
           display dialog mistake
       end try
   end perform mail action with messages
   
    on run
       tell application "Mail" to set sel to selection
       tell me to perform mail action with messages sel
   end run
   
    
    on textToList(thisText, delim)
        set resultList to {}
        set {tid, my text item delimiters} to {my text item delimiters, delim}
        try
           set resultList to every text item of thisText
           set my text item delimiters to tid
       on error
           set my text item delimiters to tid
       end try
       return resultList
   end textToList
   
end using terms from

TIA for any help,

Best,

J.
