Hi All,

seems there is an issue with this script...

In apple mail - I set a rule for any mail that contains "@" then run this applescript...

Currently it is triggered from the rule but speaks what ever message is currently highlighted... but I want it to speak the ACTIVE INCOMING mail (not whatever is highlited)

So I'll bet we have to do something like set theSelectedMessages to the === ACTIVE INCOMING mail  ???

Yo do we set that?

tell application "Mail"
	set theSelectedMessages to the selection ----- hmmm this needs help
	set eachMessage to item 1 of theSelectedMessages
