most probably expects a list there for BCC (even if it's a one-item list).
No it doesn't, Nor does ' BCC recipients' property of draft window in
Entourage, either. You have Entourage - take a look. 'draft window' wants a
comma- (or comma-space-) delimited string for 'to recipients', 'cc
recipients', 'bcc recipients'. Unlike 'outgoing message', which has a
completely different (and complicated) setup for recipient, which are really
elements of a message but can be included a property - a list of records -
when making outgoing messages. You were probably thinking of outgoing
message.
So the error is that Daniel included 'recipient' as a property of draft
message. That should be 'to recipients':
tell app "Outlook Express"
set newMsg to make new draft window with
properties {subject:theSubject, content:theContent,
to recipients:"email@hidden", BCC recipients:bccList,
attachment:attachmentList}
end tell
If the content is complete, you don't need you open it up on the screen. You
could make a message and send it without opening it. But then you would have
to turn bccList into a list of records.
