Finding the reply to a message

Yes, it can be done. Below is a script which does this. The only part that is missing is deciding which mailbox to search in. If you only have a single outgoing mailbox, this is easy. Otherwise you need to have some way of picking a mailbox to search (or you could search through a list of mailboxes until you found a suitable message).


tell application "Mailsmith 1.5"
	
	set search_mailbox to "something needs to go here"
	
	
	if class of window 1 is message window then
		set m to message of window 1
	else
		set m to selection
	end if
	set msg_id to message_ID of m
	
	open (first message of search_mailbox whose reply reference is msg_id)
end tell
