Hi... my first post here. I'm a long time Emailer user, and recently migrated to 10.4.3 (Tiger), where I'm using Emailer under Classic.
The other day, I worked out a way to get Emailer to handle browser 'mailto' URLs under Tiger, and thought I might share the result with this list... but I've found no one yet with the time or temerity to test it on their own machine. I'd rather not make a general release of it until it has been tested (preferably repeatedly) elsewhere. 'MailTo Emailer' is a specially prepared AppleScript that simply passes mailto URL info to Emailer... whence Emailer handles the URL on its own... resulting in a new, addressed outgoing message. It works with _some_ properly formatted, more complex mailto URLs... (and doesn't complain when it can't). MailTo Emailer replaces any existing mailto protocol and must be 'installed' using a utility like MoreInternet, MisFox or similar. At present, it's not clear to me whether OS X's Mail.app must be disabled to use MailTo Emailer... I did so on my own machine to ensure there would be no conflicts. It works nicely here, but there may be caveats and 'gotchas' elsewhere. It is offered only as a run only script for now... meaning you cannot view the script code... which I realize may sour first impressions... but I have my reasons. A show of hands from brave souls willing to try it out (and/or those interested in its utility) would be welcome. I monitor the list from the web archive... but will reply to individual posts as time permits. Thanks for any/all replies. Peter Bunn -- PS - Any cure ever found for the occasional, random duplicate incoming message problem? I wrote another script to clear the 'Temp Incoming' folder, but haven't put it into regular use as yet. The duplicates are sometimes confusing, but I don't consider it more than a minor annoyance. ----- ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
