Because 'attachment' in just something they've thrown into the aete
because it happened to be lying around. So far as I can tell (and I'd
be delighted to be corrected) it has absolutely no connexion with
"attachment" in the sense that the user of a mail agent would expect
it to have. The same thing is hanging around in all cocoa apps (eg.
TextEdit)
'attachment' is in the Text Suite, so by rights one would presumably
make on oe these at the end of the content of the message, but the
line will give an error, so far as I can see, whatever you write.
It's also not made clear in the dictionary whether the 'file name'
property of this elusive attachment should be a Mac pathname or a
UNIX pathname. TextEdit want UNIX pathnames, but doesn't tell you
either.
tell app "Mail"
set |message| to a reference to outgoing message
set |.| to a reference to end of outgoing messages
activate
set p to {visible:true, subject:"Test", content:"hello"}
set to1 to {name:"test", address:"email@hidden"}
set att1 to {file name:"dx:users:jd:test"}
set m to make |message| at |.| with properties p
tell m
make to recipient at end with properties to1
try
set e to "no error"
make attachment at end with properties att1
on error e
end try
--save
-- -- or
--send
end
end
e
