I do think so, Luther.

I have the same kind of script for Entourage, which works generally like
this:

    a) build a list of all Mail folders; store that in a script property
    b) keep that mailbox reference list, build a parallel string name list
        for display to the user
    c) when the 'move message' script is invoked, choose from list (b)
    d) move the message to corresponding mailbox reference (a)

This technique is used in quite a few Entourage scripts that I have (not all
written by me...many by Paul B.)

Anyway, that will achieve the OP's request (as re-re-revised and clarified.)
