Nice.
It didn't occur to me to use "set visible messages"; I tried to have the script select the messages.
But, depending on the needs, wouldn't this be a job for a smart mailbox? Unfortunately, you can't script smart mailboxes; the term doesn't exist in mail's dictionary. If the OP needs to do it through scripting, he can't use them.
By the way, if you don't want to create a new message viewer:
tell application "Mail" to tell message viewer 1 to set visible messages to messages of mailbox "Applescript" of application "Mail" whose sender contains "nebel"
