It's perfectly foolish.

The asker which I tried to help told me that the script behave well on its system.
So I start wondering if I was facing a problem specific to the French localisation.

I re-tested with the code borrowed from the late asker's message and the attachment was not moved.

I re-booted in English and the same code behaved flawlessly so I thought that there is really a bug specific to French localization.

I re-booted in French and to be sure I made an other attempt. This time the attachments were correctly saved.

I must assume that something was odd in a file which was repaired when I ran in English.

I was too optimistic and naïve.
At last I found why the script  posted in macScripter [b][u]seems[/u][/b] to work.
It's not working upon the list of messages passed by the rule, it's working upon what is selected in Mail.

[applescript]    tell application "Mail"
           set theMessages to the selection # THE INSTRUCTION WHICH FOOLED ME
           set selectedMessages to theMessages[/applescript]

If we remove the instruction  grabbing the selection and we will not get the attachments saved.
