Use Multiple filters. Use one to move the message, then use another to run the AppleScript. It's probably easier with the latest beta of 5.0, but I believe you can still do it in 4.2.1. >I, too have worked in several programming languages (BASIC, FORTH, and >several scripting languages), but have not found myself compatible with >AppleScript, so any assistance would be welcome. AppleScript is a bit quirky at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's really easy. The hardest part is each application has their own dictionary, so something like: Set MyVariable to current selection works great in one application, but not another. That's the frustrating part. I've found myself starting to use AppleScript more as the "glue" and SED and AWK to do all the heavy lifting. I've seen huge improvements in speed, but both SED and AWK also have their own set of issues as well.
