Hi Paul,
Thanks again for these scripts. I am trying to use the 2nd one,
incorporating both the redirect and the redirected status change into the
same action since using my redirect rul and then another rul with the "strip
redirect" script is hit and miss (some messages it seems to work on but
others are still left with the redirect icon)
Anyway, the script won't compile with 'without opening message'. I get a
Syntax Error "Expected end of line, etc. but found class name."
So I removed that line but just now realized the implications of that as
about 20 windows flashed and then closed before my eyes :)
I'm sure I'm overlooking something simple, but I'd appreciate your guidance
on what that syntax should be.
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
set theMsg to item 1 of (get current messages)
set theRedirect to redirect theMsg to "Gmail_Laurie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
without opening message
send theRedirect with sending later
set redirected of theMsg to false
end tell
Laurie
