Russ,

If this works will you promise to change your login name to something other than super scary "System Administrator"? Purdy please with sugar on it.


-- You'll have to unwrap a few lines because of list mangling

set their_email to "email@hidden"
set their_name to "X"
set msg_subject to "Test"
set msg_message to "Hi!" & return & "Bye"

tell application "Mail"
activate
try
set this_message to make new compose message at beginning of every compose message
tell this_message
make new to recipient at beginning of to recipients with properties {address:their_email, display name:their_name}
set subject to msg_subject
set the content to msg_message
end tell
send this_message
on error errstr
display dialog errstr buttons {"OK"} default button "OK" with icon note
end try
end tell

Thanks for the assistance - there IS a scripts folder for Mail, and it
got me quite a long distance along the way. Here's what I have so far:

set default_address to "email@hidden"
set mail_subject to "test"
set content to "this is a test"
tell application "Mail"
open location "mailto:"; & default_address & "?subject=" & mail_subject
end tell

This works - as far as it goes. There is nothing in the body of the
email, and when I try to put something like this at the end of the next
to last line:

& "content" & content

this gives me the following error

Mail got an error: NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 3

Any ideas?

Thanks from an AS student!
