Okay, here's what I'd like to do:
1) Have a Mail.app rule fire an applescript when an email triggers the rule.
2) Grab the "subject:" line and the "to:" line from the email, and send that to another program which I'll write
What's the best way for an applescript to send the info to my ObjC program (for 10.6 or later)? The program will probably be a low-level service that waits on a specific port and runs in the background. It'll take the info, then file it into a table in an SQLite3 database. A different program will pull and collate the info in the DB.
Secondly, how do I get an applescript to obtain the subject: line of an email, assuming Mail.app launched the applescript in question when the rule fired?
Thirdly, are rules in Mail.app synchronous (w/regards to calling an Applescript)? i.e. will they wait for the script to finish?
