Yes. If you are connected to an "always on" DSL line, for example, you will never see the Outbox mailbox.

I am attempting to run an applescript to  send a specific outgoing message,  similar to what a user might request by clicking the Send command in the Message menu of Mail. As far as I see, an unsent outgoing message is not contained by any mailbox.

Unless it has been saved. A saved and unsent message is contained in the Drafts mailbox.

Perhaps you should include a command to 'save' the message first, then identify and send it.
