Newbie: An action requiring a follow-up Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Greg, this is interesting—I observe different results. My OF context is named 'Waiting' and that is what I designate in the script. I assign '@waiting' as the MT keyword in the Outbox Rule, which is what I use to tag an outgoing email. The script functions fine for me.

The script and rule also run properly when I assign the word 'saxophone' in the Outbox Rule and tag the outgoing email with the same, but have my context named Waiting in OF and the script.

It's my understanding that OF is currently unable to import a MT keyword as a context. (OF can import a MT project, but this script doesn't grab that data). Going from Mail to OF, the context is assigned via the script, not because OF can scan the keyword and match a context. If, for example, I set the MT keyword of an outgoing or received message to 'Errands'—which matches a top-level context in OF—and clip it to the OF Inbox or QE, the task is added, but no context is imported.

Are you observing different behavior?

Mac OS X 10.5.8
OF 1.7.3

You are absolutely correct-my mistake. It is keywords that are not mapped to contexts, and I'm always forgetting and getting it wrong. Perhaps because I really want MT keywords mapped to a context! It is curious why the script breaks for me if the MT keyword does not match the context in OF.
