if message is "XYZ" then do next step (not working)?

Your handler works for me.

If you step through the script, where does it not go wrong? Sometimes in 
debugging I will rewrite even simple "if/then" statements in their expanded 
form:

if this then
   dotThat
end if

Instead of: if this then doThat.

Because you can place a breakpoint at the "doThat" line to see if the 
condition is being tested correctly. If you never reach that line, you can find 
the problem more quickly.

I think it is something simple, like a typo.
