AppleScript:Create a new to-do from a Mail message

Create a new to-do from a Mail message

Description:

Creates a new to-do from a selected Mail message (OS X Mail application). Includes a link back to the mail message so you can find it later from within Things. Uses the Quick Entry interface, so you can edit the task, move to a project, add tags, etc on the fly.

I use the excellent MailActOn plugin from http://www.indev.ca/MailActOn.html; I can simply select a mail message, then type ctrl-T to execute this script and create a new to-do based on the mail message.
