The request was made because the account popup may _not_ be as intuitive as
you think, especially to someone [like my wife] for whom Erage and the Mac
are a second system. And keyboard shortcuts may be useful to some, but just
complicate a simple task for someone who isn't interested in learning the
subtleties of any program. For someone like that, the basics are enough, and
selecting a script from the menu requires fewer steps than opening a new
window and remembering to change the popup before composing the message.
Thanks for the script.
