why not use Mail Rules for this?

I dont get it. You can choose to have rules for different domains - yes if you have hundreds of domains, then this script might help - but most of us or me atleast - have about 10 or 15 domains - and adding a rule is "safer" - I dont muck around with Applescript which I never seem to have the time to learn!

I meant Mail Rules without the Script...

On second thoughts this script may be useful if one gets mail from senders which you dont want to deal with right away! Still mucking about with AS in mail is still scary to me :-)
