Ideally I would like to find all messages that are
older than a certain date
And
not in one of several folders
Do I have to loop through all the folders folders, like below or is there
an easier way?
Thanks again!
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
set theFolders to every folder
repeat with i from (count theFolders) to 1 by -1
set this_folder to item i of theFolders
set theMessages to (every message of this_folder where time received
is less than date "Monday, August 4, 2003 12:00:00 AM")
repeat with i from (count theMessages) to 1 by -1
set this_messsage to item i of theMessages
--do some stuff here
end repeat
end repeat
end tell
