Title: Re: Determining the Default Mail App
Entity Todd Geist spoke thus:

> Is there an Applescript way to determine the Default Mail application  
Probably your best bet is to say something like:

/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister –dump

>From the result of that command you would look for the line containing the string “ eml”

Two lines later is the app that is the default email app.
