How do I correctly import mail from Apple mail?

I am using DEVONthink 3.9 Pro.

The import appears to mostly work from the capture menu.

I can not get it to see contents of a folder inside another folder though. I also see import errors at times. I am not sure why.

The documentation shows this:

How do I correctly execute these? Do I double-click them from Finder? Do I run them from Script Editor? Do I execute them from the Scripts/Execute/AppleScript menu? Someplace else? It would be handy to execute these from Apple Mail.

I see them installed.

Wow! :man_facepalming:

I never saw Manage Plugins for Apple Mail.

Enabling the plugin here makes it available from DEVONthink. :slight_smile:

That is correct. Glad you found it.

But the Manage Plug-ins button is gone in Mail 16.0, running on Sonoma 14.5, in the year of our Lord 2024 (fifth month, twenty-first day).
