I want to add a script to a rule to auto-print messages as PDF to a specific Folder. What I found was this: http://is.gd/acmsE but it doesn't work for me on OS X 10.6. I already know the Save to PDF command and that you can create simple aliases in the "PDF Services" folder, but I need something automated for this task. I searched the web the whole morning and also tried to write my own Automator workflow but couldn't manage it Any help is highly appreciated.

The AppleScript that can be executed does not receive any input. It's therefore not easily possible to act on any specific email. I had some success by setting the new email's background color in the mail rule (something I don't usually use, and then using that as a marker which emails need to be processed from the AppleScript via Mail's API. Other options are flagging and moving to a specialized folder. The AppleScript executing afterwards can revert these marker actions. It's also somewhat possible to use GUI scripting for the PDF export, but I couldn't get it to work reliably. | |||
