Hi,

 
I also stumbled on the first, second and third bug. 

 
I have some general question on this list though, as I didn't see my own messages come by.
Should I see my own messages in my inbox (like I'm used to in other mailing lists?)
Did anyone see the "Automate Mail.app reply" message come by?

First bug:
Replying to a message with an Applescript opens two windows, one of which is empty but dirty. 1. Select a received message in mail.app 2. Run the following Applescript: tell application "Mail" set foo to reply item 1 of (the selection as list) with opening window end tell Expected result: An outgoing message window opens, containing the quoted text of the received message, and addressed to the sender of the received message. Actual result: In addition to the expected result, another, blank, outgoing mail window is opened, but the red dot has a bullseye inside and closing it asks if you want to save changes.

 
Second bug:
y previous problem report) even when specified otherwise Steps to reproduce 1. Select a received email message in mail.app 2. Run the following applescript: tell application "Mail" set foo to reply item 1 of (the selection as list) without opening window end tell -- "without opening window" is optional because that is the default behavior Expected result: A reply should be created, but its window should not open. Actual result: The reply window is visible. (so is another window as reported in a separate problem report)

 

 
I can confirm the above two bugs exactly as I run today in the same problems.

 
Third bug:
Replying to a message quotes the original text about 5 times. It does not always happen, about 15% or so.

 
Fourth bug:
set  MsgRef to (item  1 of selection) -- does not work

 
To make it work, I have to write:
set temp to selection
set MsgRef to (item 1 of temp)

 

 
Regards
cris
