I see, thank you.

According to what I've seen so far, yes. It looks like:
tell application "Mail"
set job to item 1 of (get selection)
is enough to get the contents of the mail file in raw form.
I've been using this script to sort my jobs for a while but only job order messages that came as replies to a mail were a problem. That's what I am at last trying to fix today.
The idea is that once the mail is stored in a job project folder, I can find it right away and double-click on it any time I need the specifics of the job.
