Nigel, Doug,

Thanks for the suggestions. The developer of the import software gave me this piece of Applescript that seems to work.

First add "message:<" to the beginning of the ID and ">" to the end of the ID. Then use this script

tell application "Mail"
open location "message:"
end tell

This seems to work and it is very easy to get FileMaker to add the required text to the message ID. This method avoids having to open the mailbox and the search for the message id that were failing.
