Back under OE and I think in early Entourage, I had a script I called
something like "New Message To". I ran it, it prompted me for info, and
created another script that would automatically create a new message
addressed to the list or person, with my usual salutation and sig, and set
to use the Account I desired to use. Some of them even prefilled the Subject
with a default value. Then, I had a folder in my Scripts folder called "New
Msg", so I could select that, which popped up a list of the scripts, named
"To John," "To Marsha," "To Entourage List," etc.
For one reason or another I have not kept that script set active, but I've
often thought of reviving it. If you are interested it might help motivate
me.
