Over the past month or two I've asked a number of questions while
rewriting an old mail archiving script. Your answers have been
helpful and interesting. I finally decided to start using Mail,
instead of Eudora, and to write the script to export Mail's
mailboxes. This solved all my problems. After a week of not being
sure of receiving mail, I made the conversion and my script is
working well.
My questions about "Unicode or ascii" and "Return or No Return" are
moot, since I am no longer reading text files. The header information
I need is available from Mail.
My inquiry about "Converting Date-Time" is no longer applicable,
since Mail does the calculation and provides information I need.
"Folder Actions" are no longer needed, since I am now linking a Mail
mailbox TO a folder, instead of the other way around.
In response to my comment on Folder Actions Matt Neuburg commented ...
Well, aside from the fact that I've written you a book that talks
about the
basics of folder actions in some detail, there's this:
<http://www.apple.com/applescript/folderactions/>
The URL is relevant and useful, however ... I've tried getting there
from both "Developer - Advanced Search" and "Support - Advanced
Search" and couldn't find it.
I may want to use Folder Actions in the future and I'm still hoping
I'll find some way to launch (an AppleScripted) application bundle as
a Folder Action.
