Am I missing something here--how is this app better than just printing the email to PDF using OS X's built in PDF maker? This app requires Adobe Acrobat in order to function (at least that's what I inferred from the system requirements list)--not an inexpensive option.

Take a look at the sample PDFs I included with the download. Note the difference from the two not done via this script; "PDF via Mac OS X" (Mac OS X's PDF generation function), "PDF via Acrobat 8 Printer", (Using Distiller as the printer) and compare them to "PDF via Script", (the one done with this script).Rather large difference, and that's just a generic HTML email in my spam folder. This preserves the live links et al that the OS print dialog doesn't. It's the difference between a hi-fidelity recreation of the email and a screenshot of the email.
