Lion Applescript to send mail (not using Mail.app) broken

Question

I have been using an applescript to transfer files across a network and then send an email when the files have transferred. I am testing Lion on one machine and my script (which worked in Snow Leopard) fails on the email part. (The files copy okay)
here is the segment:
--> send email
          set authstuff to {"auto", "plain", "login", "crammd5", "anonymous", "cramsha1"}
          set s to "on run {fromx,theAddresses,emailsubject,filelist,smtpServer,puerto"
          if emailauth is not "none" then set s to s & ",user,pwd"
          set s to s & "}" & return & ¬
                    "send mail to theAddresses from fromx SMTP server smtpServer port puerto subject emailsubject body filelist"
          if emailauth is not "none" then set s to s & " username user password pwd authentication " & emailauth
          if emailssl is "true" then set s to s & " with ssl"
          set s to s & return & "end run"
          try
  run script s with parameters {emailfrom, emailto, emailsubject, filelist, emailsmtp, emailport, emailuser, emailpass}
          on error msg
                    my err("err 9: " & msg & return & return & s)
          end try
The error message:
OS: 10.7, CPU: Intel 80486
err 9: «script» doesn’t understand the send mail message.
on run {fromx,theAddresses,emailsubject,filelist,smtpServer,puerto,user,pwd}
send mail to theAddresses from fromx SMTP server smtpServer port puerto subject emailsubject body filelist username user password pwd authentication auto
end run

Answer 1

I suspect that the script relies on a third-party scripting addition (possibly 24U Email OSAX?), and that you either need to update to the current version or wait for the developer to make a Lion-compatible version available.
One way to verify this would be to open the script on a Snow Leopard machine and choose "Open Dictionary" from the File menu, then check what scripting additions are listed.
