If I use the Move To Icon directly, (Not the down arrow on the Icon, but the
Icon itself) when moving mail to my folders, I place the mail into the folder.
However, the window does not close, nor does it go on to the next message in
my Inbox. I have verified the settings, and they are set to ³go to the next
message².
If I use the down arrow, and then select the ³choose folder², it works just
fine.
Any suggestions?
As you have found a quick tap on the icon opens the feature in a new window.
Hold and drag, gives you the option to select a folder. It's something you
need to get the feel for.
I have a few Move to folder xxx for specific folders I use frequently. This
script moves a folder named !To Add. Just modify the script for the folder
you want. Assign a shortcut for easy use. Drawback, too many folders can
start to get confusing and that¹s a lot of shortcuts to remember.
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 "!To Add"
on error
display dialog "An error occurred and the messages were not moved.
Does the folder\"!Recent\" exist?" buttons {"Quit Script"} default button 1
with icon stop
return
end try
repeat with aMessage in theMessages
set the read status of aMessage to untouched
end repeat
end tell
Another option is to use Allen Watson's script. This doesn¹t require
separate scripts for each folder.

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.)
