No. That got left out of the new applescript contact properties (probably
because email addresses are elements, not properties, of contact), so
there's no simple way to do this at the moment. We were told on the beta
list that it's on the list of things to fix in applescripting. I should have
included in my list of anomalies yesterday (I'll pos an update soon, after a
few more have accumulated).
However, in the process of working on another script, I discovered that an
email address added by script when the Home postal address is made default
(almost as if that page of the contact "booklet" were open) can end up as a
Home email address. I'm not sure if it's 100% reliable, but it certainly
worked a few times for me. I don't think I've made this into a script yet
(I'm beginning to forget what i have and haven't written), and I'm a bit
hazy on this at the moment. I'll look into again later - but maybe you can
beat me to it.
