My idea is that the ":" in the reply is considered as a folder separator when put into the path and I'd like to avoid that obviously.
Is there a way to fix that ?
You could try this:
set job_name to "Re: file path problem" set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ":" set job_items to text items of job_name set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "-" -- or whatever separator you want set job_name to job_items as text
Save and restore the original text item delimiters if you wish.
Also, it would be a good idea to put that code as well as the code that writes the file outside the tell application "mail" wrapper.
