Re: automatically send the email from code using NSWorkspace

Also, be really careful with your UI. Make it clear to the user that your app is going to send an email on their behalf. Make sure the user knows the sender and recipient addresses, and if possible the message body, and don't send without confirmation. If any user ends up being surprised by the fact that your app sent mail from them without their consent, your app will be accused of being malware.

Ironically we go as far as to build the message *in the user's own e- mail program*, display it to them on the screen and then let them to click "Send" themselves, and we *still* occasionally get "accused of being malware".


Kind regards,
