Thanks, Diane, but it appears that only works if I know which messages I
always want to move to which folders. In Entourage 2004, we had a tool icon
where you could select via a pulldown tool "After Sending, Move Message To..."
Now, in Office 2008, we do not (at least I can't find one that I can put in
the toolbar in a new message).
I¹m breaking the rule of not using HTLM because I¹m pasting a script. This
way the lines won¹t break for you to paste in the code.
Here¹s a script you can modify. Make one for some of your favorite folders.
The name of the folder in this script is !Recent Items. Change if for your
folder name.
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
try
set theMessages to current messages
on error
display dialog "select some messages before running this script."
buttons {"Quit Script"} default button 1 with icon stop
return
end try
try
move theMessages to folder "!Recent Items"
on error
display dialog "An error occurred and the messages were not moved.
Does the folder\"!Process Later\" exist?" buttons {"Quit Script"} default
button 1 with icon stop
return
end try
end tell
Another really handy script is

With one or more messages selected, this lets you type in a few characters
of a folder's name and moves the messages to that folder. If the match is
inconclusive, it presents a listing of the folders with the first match
selected and lets you select the one you want. Remembers last folder picked
for fast repeat operations. Shortcut assigned: Cmd-Shift-M, and typing the
folder name, will accomplish ALMOST the same thing, and about in the same
time.)
