10.5: An AppleScript to link iCal events to Mail messages
Authored by: maczen on Wed, Dec 19 2007 at 8:31AM PST

It is easier than that even.
Just grab the message in the preview (upper) pane of mail. Drag it, I use expose to get to my iCal window easily, and drop it on the appropriate day / time slot. You can then edit the new entry and the "Show in Mail" link will work as expected.

It would be nice to be able to drop onto an existing event, but currently the edit info window needs to already be open on the existing event. Seems to be a little bit of oversite by Apple.
