Apple

As for books: when I learned AS, I used Wrox's Beginning AppleScript. It was great.

I am real new using Applescript so this maybe a real lame question.

Why do some gmail mailboxes return a -1728 error and some work fine?

set target_account to "Gmail"
set target_mailbox to “Flagged"

tell application "Mail"
get every message in mailbox target_mailbox of account target_account whose flagged status is true

end tell

Works fine. However it I change the target_mailbox to “Starred” I receive

error "Mail got an error: Can’t get mailbox \"Starred\" of account \"Gmail\"." number -1728 from mailbox "Starred" of account “Gmail”

get name of every mailbox in account target_account

Returns

{"All Mail", "Bin", "Drafts", "Sent Mail", "Spam", "Starred", "Busy_Mac", "Elgato", "Growl", "Money_Dance", "Support Lists”, “Flagged”, "Archive", "Personal", "Receipts", "Temp", "Unflagged", "Work", "Apple Mail To Do", "Notes", "INBOX", "Drafts", "Sent Messages", "Deleted Messages", "Junk”}

So both mailboxes are showing up.

What am I missing? Help. Also any recommend Applescript books?
