Does "a better way" necessarily include the presumption that the
Mail.app is the default mail client, or has been configured to send
mail? I can see how this approach would have value in certainly
rigidly controlled environments, but not in the wild.

To achieve so much as a plurality of mail client coverage, I don't
personally see an alternative to a lot of custom AE work. Mail,
Entourage, Eudora, Mailsmith, and you still don't get the case where a
workstation isn't configured with a mail client at all (like this one,
where I'm connected to my mail host via ssh).

What's the context for the problem?
