[DM-MUG] Fwd: Re: [MacLaw] Mail archiving and handling - more info from local mug

[Stuart Thiessen]

Quite right. But my intent is to copy all of the emlx files out of  
their location in ~/Library/Mail and then put them in a Zip or DMG for  
"offline storage". Will the copied emlx file still reference that  
attachment in ~/Library/Mail Downloads? I suspect that if I did a  
manual move of the emlx files and then programmatically told Mail to  
delete the emails, the attachments would also be deleted from that  
folder. So, there would be a need to see if Applescript is smart  
enough to tell me that a specific email has attachments and will let  
me copy the attachments over to the Zip or DMG before the email is  
deleted. I haven't researched that yet. I'm just thinking aloud  
here. :)  Like I said, a rainy day programming project. :)

Thanks,

Stuart
