Given either unique identifier for a message, how do you find it?
Nothing I have tried works. Al I want to is find it and open it up.
If you keep your 'locate' database up to date, you could investigate
the following idea:
--
tell application "Mail"
set s to item 1 of (get selection)
set theID to id of s
end tell
set f to do shell script "locate " & (theID & ".emlx")
set m to POSIX file f
tell application "Finder" to open m

I have no idea whether this is a 'good' or 'recommended' approach,
though. :-)
Does Spotlight index the names of the individual mail files?
cheers
