How did you know about this ``message://%3c%3e'' schema syntax!? Is
there anything else I can do to Mail from within Emacs (or from

safe to upgrade Mail (i.e. if I upgrade to OS X 10.666 will this
script break?)
Things like this change all the time between OS revisions, so no
guarantee. I think the message URLs are new in Leopard (10.5). You
can find some details here:

The macosxhints.com site is good too for tricks like that. I think I
just modified someone else's "Copy Message URL" script to put it in
the right format for org-mode. I'm no apple-script expert either.
It seems that the message is found even if I move it to another
folder within Mail after generating the link; anything I need to be
warned about?
Yes, Mail in Leopard indexes all the messages and (usually) follows
them through refiles. Once in a while a linked message can't be
found, but if I revisit the folder or "synchronize with server", then
it works again.
I often have two message viewers open (one with mailboxes showing
and one without, for easier filing {see footnote}) -- how does your
script (or Mail) choose which one is 'selected'?
No idea, likely the last Mail window with focus?
1) Why doesn't the applescript work for the messages in the first
folder I tried - my GTD folder? Messages from the org-mode digest
are automatically filed to "On My Mac" -> "Reference" -> "GHI" ->
"GTD" to help keep my inbox clean. But any message I try to run
your script on gives me blank "id" properties.
Example: [[message://%3c%3e][Emacs-orgmode Digest, Vol 26, Issue 54]]
Hm, that %3c%3e means that there was no message-ID field for that
message. If you look at "Long Headers" and there IS a "Message-ID:"
field (there is on org-mode messages for me), then maybe it has to do
with Mail's index after auto-filing. I do my auto-filing on the
server with procmail, so I never use Mail's facility for that.
2) The emacs-lisp code calls (yank) which doesn't grab text from the
Apple Clipboard for me. I am using "GNU Emacs 22.1.50.1 (powerpc-
apple-darwin7.9.0, Carbon Version 1.6.0) of 2007-10-02 on
applecore.inf.ed.ac.uk - Aquamacs Distribution 1.2a" and org-version
5.23a. Instead, I modified your code to use (cua-paste).
Okay, simple enough. Mine is GNU Emacs 22.2.1 (i386-apple-darwin9,
Carbon Version 1.6.0) [compiled from emacs22-carbon in Fink].
I use Quicksilver, but don't have much in the way of Mail
integration. Let me know if you find something.
