Works perfect! However I still have to problems:
1. Finding mails with references to missing attachments. I have done
it manually but I have many thousands messages with attachments - some
of them with lost attachment. Is it possible to make a script to find
all those and select them, or even better label them yellow (or
whatever).
2. I would also like the script above to label updated emails, I
suppose it only requires one line of code but I dont know
Applescript....
Thanks!
