Hi Mike,

 Hello - I just noticed that this patch does not seem to have been applied.
 Is there a problem with it?

Probably not.  I don't think any active org developers use the macs (but I
think Carsten did).

Perhaps it should be a defcustom?  Presumably Microsoft Outlook without
.app was the correct name for somebody at some point?  Again, I don't
know anything about macs so if you are sure this won't break anything for
anybody we can apply it.

One thing that is clear: it's all down hill from here 

[O] Patch - Org Mac Outlook - Fix Call to Outlook in some cases

[Mike McLean]

If the user has:
- a virtual solution (Parallels, etc.)
- with Office for PC installed
- and configured to  expose WinTel applications to the Macintosh Finder

The AppleScript commands may try to select the WinTel version of Microsoft
Outlook. This—obviously—doesn’t work. By adding the Mac ~.app~ file
extension, we reduce this confusion and more reliably call the Macintosh
version of Outlook.
