Hey Yvan,

That's a bummer.

set frontViewer to (some message viewer whose index is 1)
log frontViewer --> (*message viewer id 8*)
properties of frontViewer

Properties hasn't worked for Mail-Viewer-Windows for a long time (if at all).

On the other hand addressing individual properties works on 10.9.5:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
tell application "Mail"
set frontMsgVwr to (some message viewer whose index is 1)

tell frontMsgVwr

set vCol to visible columns
set oBox to outbox
set pView to preview pane is visible
set selMbox to selected mailboxes -- Errors if Smart Mailbox is selected

end tell

end tell
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Best Regards,
Chris

Thanks.

Some properties are correctly returned but Robert asked for the list of visible messages and it fails :

tell application "Mail"

set frontMsgVwr to (some message viewer whose index is 1)

log frontMsgVwr --> (*message viewer id 34*)

tell frontMsgVwr

set vCol to visible columns

log result --> (*message status column, flags column, attachments column, from column, subject column, to column, date received column, mailbox column*)

set oBox to outbox

log result --> (*outbox*) ???

set pView to preview pane is visible

log result --> (*false*)

set selMbox to selected mailboxes -- Errors if Smart Mailbox is selected

log result --> (*mailbox INBOX of account iCloud*)

set visibleMessages to visible messages

--> error "Erreur dans Mail : Le gestionnaire AppleEvent a échoué." number -10000

end tell

So, given the fact that asking for this property fails it's logical that asking for the entire set fails too.

Maybe grabbing visible messages fail for years. I never used this piece of code before reading Robert's question.
