Just looking for some help with Apple's Mail.

I have a mailbox that was created "On My Mac" that pertains to Rally Australia 2004, and contains multiple messages and attachments that I am sure I will need when it comes to planning for next years event.

Rally 2003 I was still using Entourage which allowed my to archive or ".zip" the mailbox.

Is there a way to do a similar thing with a mailbox in "Mail"?

Hi Daniel,

If you are using mail in OSX 10.3, this might help you.
Mail Scripts 2.4.1

<http://homepage.mac.com/aamann/Mail_Scripts.html>

"Mail Scripts is a collection of AppleScript Studio applications for Mail and Address Book offering additional features or simplified workflow. Mail Scripts consists of the following scripts:

 Add Addresses (Mail)
• Add addresses found in the selected messages (in the header fields "From", "To", "Cc", and "Bcc") to the Address Book. This is much more flexible than the "Add Sender to Address Book" available in Mail and provides a convinient way for creating mailing lists.

 Archive Messages (Mail)
• Move messages from the selected mailbox(es) to an archive mailbox or export them to standard mbox or plain text files for backup purposes or import into other applications. You can select to move all messages or only messages sent within or certain period as well filter messages based on their read and flagged status."
