Yes that works, as Chris has shown me, but the only problem is, it's actually a 'reply' and so doesn't show in the mail list as a reply to the mail etc. Pity.- David

I have a script that acts on incoming mail and if the action errors out sends a reply email. ______________________________________________________________________
Hey James,
The simple answer is that Mail's Applescript implementation is buggy and incomplete.
While you can script a reply, you cannot really do much with that outgoing message once it's created.
In order to do something that you have reasonable control over you have to gather your requisite information from the incoming email, create your own new outgoing message, and populate it as you see fit.
Mail 5 also has a bug that prevents attachments from sticking.
