It is my experience that the new automator does not wait for any indication that a particular snippet of a workflow is complete before continuing. To fix this I usually have to add pauses. This has been a big problem in Leopard if that's what you're using. I've noticed that apps, scripts, and workflows have all been much much slower in Leopard, making them far less useful than they were in Tiger. Anyway, try adding pauses of a couple of seconds here and there to see if it helps.

Thanks Alex,

The group is huge, so I reduced it to just 10 members. The problem continued. It is a pain because it means that the workflow is useless (recipients get incomplete messages).

How do you report a bug?

Thanks for your help.

Hi, Ian
I have only first message empty. Without any truncated one.
Check how many contacts you have in Address Book group which you use and how many sent messages are in Sent folder.
I think quantity is equal.


Regards,
Alex

Hi,

When I follow the instructions sent from Alex at http://homepage.mac.com/jkevinwolfe/otto/page3/page7/page7.html Everything seems to work fine. But as the list of emails start to build, the first letters, words and sometimes whole lines fail to be included in the body of the mail. This means that after the salutation (Dear Soandso), the message begins half way through the first sentence. The first email in teh list is fine.

Does this sound familiar? Am I making an error or is this a bug?

Ian
PS: By the way, the "stubborn message" mentioned in the link above, appears to be useful if you want to include links and fonts in the mail, which is impossible to add in the automator window. _______________________________________________
