Hi Shoshanna,
the closing bracket is there, it just did not make it into my mail, sorry.
So that's not the issue. But I found it. For future reference and others I will
document the issue:
It was a typographic double quote: title = "You sure about this?!**” <--
Checking the file via `plutil` I got the error message:
`Old-style plist parser: missing semicolon in dictionary on line 5.`
Which is the details line `details = "You are sending this email with the title
Verifications.";` But I did not get what's wrong over there until I looked up a
little. After replacing by a real double quote it works!
Thanks for looking and comparing!
Kind regards
Martin
