Mailplane's AppleScript dictionary let's you:

   - Compose email with attachments. (2.1-beta let's you also directly send
   the message and set cc, bcc recipients.)
   - Get the current title and current mailplane URL

Here's an example script (2.1-beta compatible):

*tell* application "Mailplane"

*set* m *to* make new outgoing message with properties {directlySend:false}

t*ell* m

*set* sender *to* "[email protected]"

*set* r *to* make new to recipient at *end*

*tell* r

*set* address *to* "[email protected]"

*set* name *to* "Ruben"

*end* *tell*

 *set* r *to* make new cc recipient at *end*

*tell* r

*set* address *to* "[email protected]"

*set* name *to* "Monique"

*end* *tell*

 *set* r *to* make new bcc recipient at *end*

*tell* r

*set* address *to* "[email protected]"

*set* name *to* "Monique"

*end* *tell*

 *set* subject *to* "test subject"

make new mail attachment with properties {path:"Macintosh
HD:Users:ruben:Desktop:china.png"}

*end* *tell*

compose m

*end* *tell*

I haven't tried Hazel. But, does the same thing work in Safari? If not,
there's nothing that can be done.

Currently, Leech cannot be integrated.
