Title: Re: new SPAMCOP script for Entourage?

Sorry about the duplication; I was rushed and didn't check it over. For those still confused, I include the script again at the end of this message. I'll also post it to AppleScriptCentral.com.

As for setting the folder to which the message should be moved after sending it: No, I don't see any way to set that from a script, although there should be! I'll suggest it unless Paul pipes up and tells me I'm wrong. It would be easy enough, though, to set up an Outgoing Rule that says "if the recipient contains "spamcop.net" move to folder "SpamCop"".

Here is the script, just once this time:

property spamAddr : "SpamCop <email-address>"
if spamAddr = "SpamCop <email-address>" then
    display dialog "Please edit the script and put your SpamCop address in the first line."
    return
end if
if spamAddr = "SpamCop <email-address>" then return

tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
    set currentMessages to the current messages
    repeat with theMsg in the currentMessages
        my ProcessMsg(theMsg)
    end repeat
end tell

on ProcessMsg(theMsg)
    tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
        if class of theMsg is incoming message then
            set src to (the headers of theMsg) & return & (the content of theMsg)
            make new outgoing message at out box folder with properties ¬
                {content:src, subject:"Spam report", recipient:spamAddr}
        else
            display dialog "No incoming message selected."
        end if
    end tell
end ProcessMsg
