Dear Kai,

Many thanks for taking the time to respond and for your help. your code is most useful.

Thanks again ... Tim

While you've had some responses regarding Eudora, it looks from your code as if you're also interested in a similar suggestion for Mail - in which case you might like to try something like the following handler:

-------------

on alias_file for m
if m's class is «class mbxp» then
set e to "mbox"
else
set e to "mbox/Messages/" & m's id & ".emlx"
set m to m's «class mbxp»
end if
set n to "/" & (m as record)'s «class seld» & "."
tell m's «class mact» to if exists then
set p to its «class path»
if its «class atyp» is not «constant etocetpo» then set n to n & "imap"
else
tell application "System Events"
set p to value of property list item "AccountPath" of ¬
property list item 1 of property list item "MailAccounts" of ¬
property list file (preferences folder's POSIX path & "/com.apple.mail.plist")
if p starts with "~" then set p to home folder's POSIX path & p's text 2 thru -1
end tell
end if
p & n & e as POSIX file as alias
end alias_file


tell application "Mail"
	set msg to beginning of (get selection)
	set mbx to msg's mailbox
end tell

{alias_file for mbx, alias_file for msg}

-------------
