I'll preface by admitting that I'm no AppleScript expert, but I just took a spin through E'rage '08's AppleScript dictionary, and there's not the first mention of rules. Same as '04. I suppose it's possible that you could reconstruct the equivalent of a rule by ginning up a reasonably sophisticated script, but why should you have to?
And the "no rule execution via schedule" omission is just one among many. '08 is basically a disappointing release for us. Intel-native is nice. Single sign-on is nice. Package-based installation (even if you have to follow it up with a permissions repair) is nice. But after this long a delay, "nice" seems like the very least it should have been. Perhaps the next round. Brian Little Davidson College ITS On 1/23/08 10:47 AM, "Scott Haneda" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Probably it's not an oversight.

I think it can be done with applescript, and a little fiddling. There are too many simple ways to create your own spam bot these days for E-rage to use that as an reason for not having this feature. You can already "run and schedule" and those can fire scripts, which can do anything. -- Scott -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
