Thanks for your explanation. Makes sense.
The code that creates msgList is at the beginning of a very large 'tell application "Finder"' block. It was written to require aliases, hence my need to get an alias list. And it seems to be working as designed.
I could have worked-around the problem with "Icon^M" files, but there is always a chance that yet another problem file could show up. Using the Finder to get the alias list seems more reliable even if a bit slower.
