Send mail with folder actions

Question

Hee there genius
sorry to bother you again.
The next step i am making is trying to send a document that is added to a folder with mail.
I have made a script.
Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't (??).
Any ideas on what i am doing wrong ( i am not sure about making an attachment with the added item)
Thanks and cheers
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
set the item_path to the quoted form of the POSIX path of item 1 of added_items
tell application "Mail"
-- Properties can be specified in a record when creating the message or
-- afterwards by setting individual property values.
set theSubject to "testen van mail"
set theBody to "filmpje"
set newMessage to make new outgoing message with properties {subject:theSubject, content:theBody & return & return}
tell newMessage
set visible to true
make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {name:"name", address:"mailadress is put here", content:theBody}
tell content
make new attachment with properties {file name:item 1 of added_items as alias} at after the last paragraph
end tell
end tell
activate
tell application "System Events"
click menu item "Send" of menu "Message" of menu bar item "Message" of menu bar 1 of application process "Mail" of application "System Events"

Answer 1

but just stopped...my app receives email via a mail rule, processes it via osascript, then sends a reply...this worked until 12mar:
tell application "Mail"
tell (make new outgoing message with properties ¬
{subject:"re: " & cmd, content:(resultMsg as string) & return})
set sender to my dvrEmail
make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {address:replyTo}
send
end tell
end tell
here's the sent msg:
Subject: re: tvpi2DVR:send2sammy

to
/Volumes/DVR/recordings/ScheduleMar_17_2010__08_00_5-1PM.tvpi
crontab updated
but by 16mar, the recipient was no longer getting set, thus no send. everything else is fine..the unsent msg sits in drafts, showing all expected inputs but no recipient:

a simple standalone test script works, but the osascript invocation simply ignores the replyTo value, which is valid (and was output in the body of the msg)
i don't recall when i applied the 10.6.3 update, but perhaps something changed with mail...any ideas?
