Hello Christopher,
Don't have ML installed here, so I can't tell; still working fine on Lion, but I guess that info isn't of very much help... ;-)
But I take the opportunity to ask about an increasing usage I could observe here, which I don't quite understand.
Why such a convoluted access:
tell (some message viewer whose index is 1)
and not just:
tell front message viewer
or just:
tell message viewer 1
?
A message viewer is an application's element, so there is a possibly 1st, possibly a 2d, even a 3d message viewer, and so on... Why not just go thru the direct way?
Axel
