Well, you're right Jeremy.  Now here's the strange part.  I swear that 
Applescript icon wasn't in my finder menu.  I went to the preferences 
to see if I could add it.  That didn't work.  So then I thought that 
perhaps it was an application and maybe the setting to add the icon was 
in the application, so I looked in the application folder and found the 
Script Editor application together with a folder called "Script 
menu.menu"  The script editor didn't have any settings for adding it, 
(there are preferences, but it was greyed out), so I tried to open 
script menu.menu, but there wasn't anything in it, but the description 
says it's a menuextra plugin.  So I think I'll go find the folder 
called menuextra plugins and put a copy in there.  But I can't find it 
using "find".  But mysteriously, when I close the window, the script 
icon is now in my menu bar.  WHAT is going on here.  Incidentally, the 
script for removing the outgoing mail servers is in fact there and when 
I ran it, I could get rid of two servers that I couldn't delete when I 
launched it from scripts.  Weird stuff.  I think it would be better 
though it the access to scripts were in the mail application.  It would 
make more sense that having to go back to the finder.

Speaking of menu icons, I also wanted to point out that Jaguar adds 
another feature I've never seen documented. There is now an icon for PC 
cards in the menu bar.  When you pull it down your inserted cards 
appear and you can software eject them from there.  Up till now, you've 
only been able to use the hardware buttons.  I never could remember 
which was which and would end up ejecting the wrong card.
