For other tasks I am already using KeyBoard Maestro but I was hoping for a solution that uses the data already available in the mail. Or maybe I just overlook the methods to interface name, mailaddress etc. with an external program?

Regards
Martin

I am looking for a way to automate reponding to email without getting to generic, so I want to give a proper greeting as well as matching salutation. For this I would like to use something like templates. For a given response I would have to select from a set of options (salutation male/femame/unknown, formal or informal greeting etc) and fill the template with data I get from the mail.

I found some discussion on templates and mail merge as well as some notes from Benny on "Commands" 19 Jan 2014, at 16:22) but nothing conclusive. Is there more available on this topic or anyone minds to share his workflow on things like this?

One quick and dirty solution is to use a utility like TextExpander to handle this and similar problems in other apps.


Typinator offers input forms and assistants, which might be more useful:
