Apple Mail and Forward


  • Subject: Apple Mail and Forward

I'm trying to setup a script that forwards a message.

I know that I can make a new message, but that's not what I want. I specifically want to forward a message. I've gotten this far:

tell application "Mail"
set header detail to all
set messageList to selection
if messageList is {} then
return
end if


set currentMessage to item 1 of messageList
set currentSubject to subject of currentMessage


set theForwardedMessage to forward currentMessage with opening window
end tell


... however, when I do the forward command, the resulting message has not 2, not 3, but 8 copies of the message in it. If on the other had, I click the Forward button, it creates a single message, but the Applescript command creates 8.

Has anyone encountered this before?

It's bad enough that I can't change the content of the message after it's forwarded, but this kind of bug is unworkable.
