Then where'd you get that script? ;)

If you are just running the script from Mail, without any means of testing,
then you can't answer Michelle's reasonable question.

To do that, run your script from your script editor (likely, Script Editor).
That is, open it up and run it with a selected Mail message (I'm just
guessing that a selected message would still work...I don't use Mail...the
point is, have a message selected and try to run your script in the editor.

You will be alerted to errors.

This is the typical way to 'debug' an AppleScript.  If you just run a script
from a menu/rule/app/etc., and that script does not contain error-catching
code, then you may not ever know there was an error, or where.

As for the syntax for 'forward', look at Mail's AppleScript dictionary for
that verb.

Again, using Script Editor (or other), choose Open Dictionary and then open
Mail.app.  Or, alternatively (and easier?), drag Mail.app onto the/your
script editor icon...the dictionary will be displayed.
