Hm. Ok, perhaps I've just bumped into part of AppleScript I don't
understand. Using your template below, I do see an action appear for the
"text" type. However, if I change this to read:
*using terms from* *application* "Quicksilver"
*on* *process text* TheText
*tell* *application* "Microsoft Outlook"
*set* newMessage *to* *make* new *outgoing message* with properties {*
recipient*:{email:TheText}}
*open* newMessage
*get* newMessage
*end* *tell*
*end* *process text*
*end* *using terms from*
*... *then it appears under "Files & Folders" rather than under "text".
