}When you ask about dredging email addresses, are you only talking
about those within the headers of the emails? If so, it would seem a
nearly trivial effort to code up a bit of Perl (or whichever language
you prefer) to parse the message store, snag email addresses, and pipe
them into a list in a new text file or whatever format you required.
I'm sorry. i know that's not a BBEdit solution, but it does seem to
get to the crux of the matter of what you're attempting to accomplish.
I am not currently at home on my system, so i cannot attempt this and
troubleshoot what is happening to/with the clipboard from Mail.

Sorry for the lack of details such as version numbers - this used to
"Just work" and i've been waiting for it to fix itself as
mysteriously
as it was broken.
One used to be able to go into Mail, select a message (or in my
case,
many messages), hit copy, go to bbedit, hit paste, and it would
paste
only text characters from the email (along with headers, etc). It
striped style information, and that's a good thing.
For a while now, and i don't know if it was a change in bbedit or a
change in Mail, when I copy 1 or more emails in Mail, bbedit merely
highlights the menu (as if it's trying to paste), and after a short
pause nothing appears. Further, and not that it matters, but the
paste
option is gone from bbedit after the 1st failure -- i must put the
item in my clipboard anew if I wish to try (and fail) again.
The following isn't a good workaround, but it does provide another
datapoint. I can paste the message(s) into TextEdit, which renders
whatever rich/html style information was present in the email(s),
along with headers. If I select all & copy everything just pasted, I
can paste this new clipboard contents into bbedit, ready for me to
massage (I want to dredge email addresses -- I wish there were a
built
in tool to dredge email addresses, by the way). Unfortunately, in
that
process, TextEdit did something I wanted to avoid during that
process,
which was render the pictures in the email even from external
servers
(thus tracking tags). I count(ed) on bbedit to sanitize stuff like
this for me.
Any info?
