I'm just looking at using Apple Mail, after having been a Eudora user for years. Looking through the AS dictionary (10.6), I'm not seeing a property for setting the message color (as viewed in the list of the message viewer). What am I missing?

If I understand well, you need to set the message's property:
background color
but I don't know if it's available in 10.6.
It's available in 10.7

G'day Rick

I think something like this will work in 10.6.

Santa

tell application "Mail"

set temp to message 2 of mailbox "* items to manually process"

set background color of temp to purple

end tell

tell application "Mail"
tell message viewer 1
try
set tempMessageList to (get the selected messages)
repeat with eachMessage in tempMessageList
set background color of eachMessage to red
end repeat
on error errmsg number errnum
if errnum = -1719 then
display dialog "You must select some Mail."
else

display dialog errmsg & " " & errnum
end if
end try
end tell
end tell

I've tried setting the 'other' property, but to no avail, even tho it's available from the Finder.

set background color of eachMessage to {1234, 1234, 1234}

doesn't work
