I know this is moving away from LC, but you can use a simple AppleScript to to
do this, then trigger the AppleScript from Mail rules, or run as a standalone
app, or you could trigger the AppleScript from LC if that’s what you need.
I’m no AppleScript expert, I just did a bit of searching and found a script
that could be easily modified, anyway, this is the script I tested and it seems
to do what you asked. It could probably be improved, if anyone understands AS
better please step in.
set toAddress to "myemailaddr...@mail.com"
set toName to "My Name"
set toSubject to "Something Cool"
tell application "Mail"
repeat with _acct in imap accounts
--Look For Messages in the INBOX with the subject set in
toSubject
set _acct_name to name of _acct
set _inbox to _acct's mailbox "INBOX"
set _msgs_to_capture to (a reference to ¬
(every message of _inbox ¬
whose subject is toSubject))
repeat with _msg in _msgs_to_capture
set _fwdmsg to forward _msg with opening window
tell _fwdmsg
make new to recipient at end of ¬
to recipients with properties
{name:toName, address:toAddress}
end tell
activate
send _fwdmsg
end repeat
end repeat
end tell
To compile this code, open Utilities > Script Editor, create a new script and
paste the code in, make the changes you need to lines 1, 2 and 3 and save the
script as an application in the User > Library > Application Scripts >
com.apple.mail folder, then it will be available in the Apple Mail Rules.
