I would like to automate, with applescript, the back up a mailbox of mail, which is manually done with the menu "Export mailbox ...", but: I can not set the folder where the mailbox will be saved; I can not set the mailbox to export, it works only with the mailbox that I've previously selected manually with the following command: Click menu item...
The lines of the script, which does not work, are:
tell application "Finder"
--set mboxSavePath to "HD Macintosh:Users:simonepiersigilli:Desktop:e-mail:" -incorrect command to set the save path-
--set mboxSavePath to "/Users/simonepiersigilli/Desktop/e-mail/" -incorrect command to set the save path-
--set path POSIX to mboxSavePath -incorrect command to set the save path-
end tell
tell application "Mail" to activate
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Mail"
--click menu item "[email protected]" of menu "Entrata" of menu "Caselle" of menu bar 2 -wrong command to set the mailbox to export-
click menu item "Esporta casella di posta…" of menu "Casella" of menu bar 1 -correct command to open the menu "Export mailbox ..."-
-- Now click the Go (choose) button
click button "Scegli" of sheet of front window -correct command to click the button choose-
tell application "Mail" to close the front window
end tell
end tell
Can anyone help me? CesareUPDATE**
The intention is for the script to be run every week and it will have to backup the following inbox and sent mailboxes highlighted in red.
