  Examples of utility:

  I often email a link to interesting articles to myself and I have a keyboard triggered AppleScript that opens the first url found in the current message...

  tell application "MailMate"
      set c to perform {"getSelectedMessage:", "text"}
  end tell
  set u to find text "((http|https)://[-a-zA-Z0-9&=%/._?,]*)" in c with regexp and string result
  open location u
  tell application "MailMate"
      activate
  end tell
  

  This allows me to quickly move down a list of messages opening up articles I've emailed to myself using just the keyboard.

  Or there's this script, which imports the notification details of a new subscriber for my newsletter into FileMaker:

  tell application "MailMate"
      set c to perform {"getSelectedMessage:", "text"}
  end tell
  if c does not contain "email:" then
      return
  end if
  
  try
      set n_f to find text "name_first:\\s*([\\S]*)\\s*" in c using "\\1" with regexp and string result
  on error
      set n_f to ""
  end try
  try
      set e_m to find text "email:\\s*([\\S]*)\\s*" in c using "\\1" with regexp and string result
  on error
      set e_m to ""
  end try
  try
      set f_b to find text "feedback:\\s*(.*)\\s*$" in c using "\\1" with regexp and string result
  on error
      set f_b to ""
  end try
  
  tell application "FileMaker Pro"
      set current layout of front window to layout named "Email_Subs"
      cell named "sub_yaml" of current record of layout named "Email_Subs"
      set n_r to create new record in layout named "Email_Subs"
      set current record in layout named "Email_Subs" to n_r
      set cell named "yaml" of current record of layout named "Email_Subs" to c
      set cell named "name_first" of current record of layout named "Email_Subs" to n_f
      set cell named "emailAddress" of current record of layout named "Email_Subs" to e_m
      set cell named "feedback" of current record of layout named "Email_Subs" to f_b
  end tell

  I want to second this request. I'm moving some functionality that I'd built up around Mail.app over to MailMate. Being able to get access to the properties of the selected message would be powerful indeed.

  Thanks!

  I'd like to second (third?) this request as well. In my case, I'm looking for the ability to answer some email using a template. That is, I'd like to set a shortcut that would open the selected email, get the name of the sender, insert that into a template, and leave the compose window open for editing.

  Thanks.
