Problem creating new mailbox


  • Subject: Problem creating new mailbox
  • From: Mark Lawrence <email@hidden>

I'm trying to automate the create of mailboxes and am failing dismally.  The first piece of code shows that I can access the target mailbox and retrieve the contents.
tell application "Mail"
set supplierMailbox to mailbox "Suppliers" of mailbox "futuremedia" of account "shared"
set supplierMailbox to mailboxes in supplierMailbox
end tell

The next piece of code gives AppleScript Error Mail got an error: AppleEvent handler failed.
tell application "Mail"
set supplierMailbox to mailbox "Suppliers" of mailbox "futuremedia" of account "shared"
make new mailbox in supplierMailbox with properties {name:"test"}
end tell

I've tried google for answers but simply do not understand what I read as I'm new to the mac and applescript.  Can someone please help before the suicide rate goes up by one:)

Regards,


Mark Lawrence
