Outlook doesn't use a property list like other, better AppleScriptable apps,
you just list the parts by name with the string that will appear in the
respective field, no commas, no brackets, no colons. And I can't seem to get
it to work without "without Display" at the end.

CreateMail Subject subjectstring Body bodystring Recipients recipientstring
without Display
