Sorry, I am not intentionally being obtuse; let me attempt to state the use case again:
* Start the script
* Read a file, say lastRan, looking for the last time the script ran, and set that as lastRunDateAndTime
* Loop through all messages in [Gmail]/All Mail folder
* If the message has a sent date greater than or equal to lastRunDateAndTime, copy the message into a specified destination folder
* After all messages in [Gmail]/All Mail folder have been processed, write the current Date and Time Stamp into the file lastRan
* Terminate the script
I have other stuff that will process the destination folder later, that part works like a champ
Mail.app might not be the correct solution for this, I am currently re-investigating fetchmail and something newer (to me) offlineimap; The latter shows some promise; I can probably do all of this from the UNIX realm

Sigh, I was hoping that I could do this in Mail.app ...

Hey John,
It may just be me but I don't feel you've described exactly what you're trying to do in enough detail. I feel like pieces of the puzzle are missing. What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
