I guess you are in fact thinking about the "custommailbox/submailbox/subsubmailbox" naming scheme.
But that seems to only apply to user-defined mailboxes, as a kind of shortcut.
The general rule for naming is: mailbox "subsubmailbox" of mailbox "submailbox" of mailbox "custommailbox" (with in this case the top-level piece being a mailbox, not an account).
By asking for
name of mailbox "custommailbox/submailbox/subsubmailbox"
you'll anyway get "subsubmailbox", not "custommailbox/submailbox/subsubmailbox".
I've just finished rewriting some Mail code that worked in Tiger so that it would work in Leopard.
Surprisingly, the only change I found is that in
Tiger mailbox names are slash-delimited,
while in Leopard, they are colon-delimited.
I run this on Leopard 10.5.2:
tell application "Mail" properties of mailbox "apple/applescript" end tell
and it works fine. But if I run this:
tell application "Mail" properties of mailbox "apple:applescript" end tell
I get an error.
