Thanks Barry ... But I could not quite get that to work...
- I updated that particular rule - to only include the AppleScript that you
sent... It did in fact create a reply ... However it did not alter the
account...
- I also tried running the AppleScript directly without using a rule ...
Same result...
- Any ideas?

* Another quirky thing... My original script below ... Which did work when
I selected messages in the out-box... Did NOT reflect the new account in
the out-box window after I ran the script ... However if I double clicked
on one particular message .. Then it would show the updated account...
Q: is there a way to add some code to the script to make the out-box window
automatically refresh to reflect the changes?
