At 08:02p -0700 03/23/2004, Michelle Steiner didst inscribe upon an
electronic papyrus:
Vacation mail is nice, but some implementations of it result in
repeated mailings to individuals or lists.
If mail.app would have a rule that would add an address to an
address group, creating one-time vacation mails would be a snap, but
it doesn't--but you can script it to do that.
[snip]
to parse_the_sender(sender_string)
set {tid, text item delimiters} to {text item delimiters, {"<"}}
set email_sender to text item 2 of the_sender
set text item delimiters to tid
set email_sender to text 1 through -2 of sender_email
return email_sender
end parse_the_sender
Won't that fail on addresses of the form 'user@domain (name)'?
Or does Mail munge addresses into just one form?
My body is not a democracy: you don't get a vote.
And if we did, would there be primaries or just a general election? ;)
