There is. I'm very happy with the script "Resend a Copy" v2 By David Cortright for
Emailer 2, which does just that (create a copy of the message and ask if you want to
send it to the same recipients or readdress it).
As often, I actually modified the one I'm using (because the original wouldn't work
with the french version of Emailer since the recipient lines tags in the headers spell
differently).
I didn't bother making a bilingual version, nor contributing the changes, so mine will
only work with the french version of Emailer (official french 2.0v1, didn't check the
hacked US 2.0v3), and David Cortright's will probably only work with the english
version.
If someone wants my french version or wants to start a multilingual localisation
effort, ask. If you want to tweak it yourself, here are the lines to change after
finding how your version of Emailer spells recipient tags:
--------------
repeat with theLine in paragraphs of theHeaders
-- here are the mods :
-- the english version requires To:/To:, CC:/CC:, BCC:/BCC:
-- the french version requires To:/Adress� � :, CC:/CC :, BCC:/Conf. :
if theLine starts with "Adress� � :" then
set TheAddressType to "To:"
else if theLine starts with "CC :" then
set TheAddressType to "CC:"
else if theLine starts with "Conf. :" then
set TheAddressType to "BCC:"
--------------
Notes:
- It could be tricky to find the "BCC" tag spelling, because Emailer won't show long
headers for outgoing messages (and BCC recipients are not in headers). I tried the
name of the 3rd item in the recipient type popup menu and it worked, but it could be a
coincidence since the 1st item doesn't match the "To" tag. So you'll have to try
(other versions may even not need a change and just use the US spelling).
- The script actually asks how you want to address the copy BEFORE making a copy,
which is good and allows cancel, it then adds [resend] to the subject and a note at
the beginning of the content saying it's a resend from another message.
- It only asks what to do when a SINGLE message is selected, otherwise it directly
duplicates every selected messages and readdresses them to the same recipients.
