Can someone please tell me how to make a script that will execute whenever the user opens an e-mail without having to set anything up beforehand on the receiving computer?

Just kidding.

If you intend the body of your email message to contain text other than a script (i.e. signatures, etc.), then you'll need to modify the above script to parse message content. However, for demonstration purposes, I've assumed that the message body will contain *only* a script (simply copied, say, from Script Editor - and pasted into an otherwise empty message).

Set up your Mail rule, satisfying yourself that it offers sufficient security (as others have already advised). Under "Perform the following actions:", select "Run AppleScript - and then choose the file that contains the above script.

Finally, send yourself a script in an email message that meets the rule's conditions.
