 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?
