onjects and methods

I am trying to move an email object from one variable to another.

The first is

$todays_email_msg.item($TodaysItemCounter)

and when I type this in I get the email that I expected.

The second is

$email_msgs.item($InboxMsgCounter)

and when I type this in I get the email that I expected.

However when I try and execute

$todays_email_msg.item($TodaysItemCounter)=$email_msgs.item($InboxMsgCounter)

I get the error : Method invocation failed because [System.__ComObject] doesn't contain a method named
'item'.

Any idea why this fails and how I can copy from one to another

thanks

$todays_email_msg.item($TodaysItemCounter)

$todays_email_msg.item($TodaysItemCounter) = $email_msgs.item($InboxMsgCounter)
$todays_email_msg.item($TodaysItemCounter) = $email_msgs.item($InboxMsgCounter)
$todays_email_msg.item($TodaysItemCounter) = $email_msgs.item($InboxMsgCounter)$todays_email_msg.item($TodaysItemCounter)

$todays_email_msg.item($TodaysItemCounter)

$todays_email_msg.item($TodaysItemCounter)

$todays_email_msg.item($TodaysItemCounter)
