Your code ...
every message of mailbox "Inbox" whose id is 20863
looks suspicious because it refers a single message with a unique id.
Here is a snippet of code I wrote a couple of years ago, so perhaps
I've forgotten the details about what it does and why, but it might
be helpful ...
('msg' is a reference to a message)
tell application "Mail"
set mbox to (mailbox of msg)
set msgName to ((id of msg) as text) & ".emlx" -- needed for file
alias
try
account of mbox -- THIS DOES NOT WORK FOR MAC ACCOUNT or USER
MAILBOXES
set acnt to the result
set acntDir to (account directory of acnt) -- THIS WORKS !!!!!!!!!
set noAccount to false
on error
set noAccount to true
end try
I don't recall the reason for my comments. No doubt you will
rediscover them.
No doubt!!
I guess I would ask you and others who are more knowledgeable than I,
if , because every message in the Mail App has a uniqueID ( and I
mean the mail ID,not the message-ID), does it not know which account
it is in?
I think the first line you saw as suspicious is valid, as it asks for
a list, ( in this case the list is a list of 1). Once this list is
obtained, by setting each subsequent variable to a more unique
property, I was hoping to derive the value I was looking for. I am
unfamiliar with "try".
You have probably answered my question...even though I do not realize
it..so I apologise if I missed this.
