But it appears that there's no way to target the front window of Mail, including in the 10.6 version of Mail.
Message windows belong to a Viewer Window not the application. Try this ...
tell application "Mail" set frontViewer to (message viewer 1) set theMsg to message 2 of frontViewer content of theMsg end tell
--- Helpful, but it gets the content of the first message in the list of incoming messages of te selected mailbox in the mail viewer window.
I'd like the script to operate on an open outgoing message window that is front-most.
Sorry if this wasn't clear. --- mm |
