I am using the following Apple Script lines for opening the mails which are in Mail app for each modes.



View Mode : open theMsg

Reply View Mode : reply theMsg opening window yes

Reply All Mode : reply theMsg opening window yes reply to all yes

Forward Mode : forward theMsg opening window yes




Only the first opens the message; the rest create a new message containing the quoted contents of the original message.  Furthermore, Reply and Reply All are the same thing, but with different parameters; they are not different "modes".

I want to know how we can open external eml file in different view modes (View, Reply, Reply All and Forward) using Apple Script or Apple Event programmatically with a similar mechanism available through script in Mail App.


You can open an external eml file with the following script:

tell application "Finder"
set foo to open item 1 of (get the selection)
end tell

Then you can script mail.app to reply to or forward the message.
