Can you set the foreground color of Mail messages?

Hello all,

I’ve put together an AppleScript that will toggle the background color of selected messages to red or none:


tell application "Mail"
	set selectedMessages to selection
	repeat with thisMessage in selectedMessages
		if background color of thisMessage is red then
			set background color of thisMessage to none
		else
			set background color of thisMessage to red
		end if
	end repeat
end tell

I am very happy with it, with one exception: is there a way to set the foreground color of selected messages? I am using dark mode and I’d rather view Mail messages with foreground colors (as opposed to background colors).

I’ve tried searching through the Apple Mail AppleScript dictionary, but I am at a loss. I know you can set foreground colors using Mail rules, but I am at a loss on how to do this in my AppleScript.

An example of the Mail Rule that I want to duplicate in my script:

Thoughts?
