Hey guys - I'm trying to create an apple script to send a new iMessage. But I'm stuck. Can anybody help?
tell application "System Events"
tell application "Messages" to activate
tell process "Messages"
click menu item "New Message" of menu "file" of menu bar 1
end tell
...
endtell
... and thats it. How Do I tell Messages to fill in an email adress or phone number now and to send it?
Thank you!

The best way is to not use UI Events at all - they're cumbersome at best. Instead consider the direct approach - tell Messages what you want it to do (send a message) not necessarily how you would do it (click here, type this, etc.)
For example, to send a message to a buddy you can:
tell application "Messages"
set theBuddy to buddy "someone@mac.com" of service "iCloud"
send "Hi there" to theBuddy
end tell
(adjust for your appropriate service name, of course.
Is there a way to send a group message?
I am hoping to find a script that will send a group as well! Any help with this?
