auto open separate new mail windows?

P

pete mac

well I still can't get entourage 2004 to work, so in the meantime I am
tinkering with the current X system...

....I have all my emails in separate mailboxes, one for each person/jobs etc.
all my mail is auto moved to its appropriate folder on receipt

I like the 'bolding' of headers to indicate new mail in a folder, and the
right-click capacity of the mail icon to show folders with new mail

but, when a new mail comes in, I would like its folder to open and come to
the front, separately in each instance, just like they did in eudora... I
can't seem to find a preference for this

does anyone know a rule or script that will automatically do this to all new
mail?

I was going to say...

Sounds like you would make a perfect Eudora candidate!

--Open Folder v1.0 (12th June 2004)
-- An applescript for Microsoft Entourage
-- Barry Wainwright <mailto:[email protected]>
-- This script opens the enclosing folder of the selected
-- message in it's own window

tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
try
set theMessage to item 1 of (get current messages)
on error
display dialog "No Message Selected!" buttons {"Abort"} default
button 1 with icon stop giving up after 2
return
end try
set theFolder to storage of theMessage
open theFolder
end tell


Run this script as the last action for the rule that files your messages
