Here is the weirdness; the subject changes in the message list in the viewer, but does not change in the subject header of the message itself, but if you reply to the message, the reply will reflect the change of subject.

Even stranger, if you quit Mail, and open it again, the original subject is restored in the message list.

Coincidentally, here's some more Mail strangeness that I encountered right after reading the above message. First of all, this simple little script didn't work:


tell application "Mail"
	move selection to mailbox "Inbox"
end tell

while this one, for example, does:

tell application "Mail"
	move selection to mailbox "UEA/UK"
end tell

So it turns out like with smart mailboxes before, that Inbox isn't a real mailbox?

I thought it was also strange that the record button seemed to work but that nothing was recorded, either when I dragged the selected message to the Inbox or selected Message > Move To > Inbox - but then I figured that's likely common to all unrecordable apps, so that clicking on the record button doesn't necessarily give you an immediate indication as to whether your further actions are actually being recorded or not.

I programmed the transfer using a simple QuicKeys menu selection, but am interested in knowing how to do it with AppleScript, assuming it's possible as one would think it should be.


Thanks,
