Probably so. It's easy enough, if you are creating a new contact that will
have no existing categories. Adding on categories gets a little more
complex.
If you have used "Add sender to Address Book" in your rule, the contact
should already exist. The script then needs to find that contact and change
its category:
tell application "microsoft Entourage"
set theMsg to item 1 of (get current messages)
set theSender to sender of theMsg
set theContact to find theSender
set the category of theContact to category "Best Friend"
-- Or whatever category you want to use; must exist
end tell
That should do it.
