Dear Apple friends ,

  I am writing an apple script in which rule for each mailbox has to be created . The script
is looping through all mailboxes , it has to check whether there is rule existing  for the
mailbox , if not create a rule for the existing box. The simple rule is if a when mail message 
is recieved  from particular sender_name@domain_name transfer that mail to this this
mailbox .Any help or clue to where I can get the answer will be highly appreciated .  Just
suggest me proper syntax for this case . The rough outline of the script is :



tell application "Mail"
     
--getting the mailboxes      
     set all_mailboxes to mailboxes of account "IMAP Account"
--looping through the mail box
     repeat with each_mailboxes in all_mailboxes

--getting the name of mailbox           
     set mail_boxname to name of each_mailboxes
--get the unique sender_name@domain_name  list_sender  from the each_mailbox 
          
--make a rule for the list_senders           
                    
    syntax  required           

end repeat
     
end tell


      The other part of the script is working fine , I just want to know how to add rule to this
particilar mailbox in a loop . The version of the mail application is 2.1 . Is there is also any
way to add the rules to the existing rules ?

Thanks in advance


Krishna
