# Mail Apple Mail automation via JXA (`osascript -l JavaScript`). ## Archiving Mail.app `delete()` moves messages to Trash, not Archive. There is no `archiveMailbox` property — find the archive mailbox by name per account. See [archiving.md](archiving.md) for account detection, mailbox lookup, and batch archive patterns. ## Reading ```javascript var app = Application("Mail"); var inbox = app.inbox(); var messages = inbox.messages(); ``` Key properties: `subject()`, `sender()`, `dateReceived()`, `content()`, `mailbox().account()`. ## Notes - JXA arrays from Mail may lack `.map()/.filter()` — use `Array.from()` or for-loops - `.whose()` selectors fail on child mailbox arrays — use for-loops - Launch Mail first if not running: `open -g -a "Mail"`
