Dear Gnarlie,
Please apologise me again for sending you my email.
But what you are saying is impossible.
My mailing routine accesses the Postfix Mailing Daemon in Unix, and
uses a written file. So, there is no cc'ds addresses on the email.
Just check the full source on the email I sent you by selecting the
message o Mail.app and pressing command + option + u you will see that
the source is clean from other addresses.
There is NO CHANCE that I caused you to receive SPAM.
If I can be of any help, please say so.
I am so sorry.
Bernardo

Since Bernardo began scripting emails I have suddenly began receiving
spam
on my 2 email accounts. It seems very likely to me that Bernardo has
compromised my email address(es).
These emails have subject lines like:
february 12-16, 2006: quality assurance and management
january 15-17, 2006: healthcare service management for manufacturing
and
service companies
healthcare service management <email@hidden>

Bernardo has apologized for the spam originating from his company, but
it
looks like another recipient has harvested my address from his mass
mailing.
Has anyone else received these spams? I was in his address book, only
those
who personally helped him with scripts would have the honor of being
spammed.
Even if Bernardo had no intention to compromise anyone's personal
information it is all to easy to make a mistake with scripting.
Spammers
routinely harvest all cc'd addresses from emailed to add to their list
of
recipients, that is probably what happened to me.
I also must take the opportunity to berate "has". On every scripting
forum I
participate in the requests to script email sending are treated with
the
utmost suspicion. This is exactly why.

Entity Bernardo Hoehl spoke thus:
Thanks Has!
That looks much better!
Greetings,
Bernardo

I have come up with this script to extract every email address from
my address book, and it looks to me a a good monster example. (see
the script at the end of this)
Although it seems to work, it looks very weird to me. Could you
folks
send me your comments on how to make it simpler?
set res to {}
tell application "Address Book" to set lst to value of every email of
every person
repeat with subListRef in lst
repeat with emailRef in subListRef
if emailRef's contents is not in res then set end of res to
emailRef's contents
end repeat
end repeat
res
has
