Hi Cliff,
I struggled with this too. I'm afraid I can't remember all the details, but I
think that one key point is that you need to have an "outgoing message" to
respond to send. You may need to add your draft message to the mail apps
"outgoing messages" before it can be sent. Try something
Just had a closer look at what I did with sending mail and I think my earlier
reply was probably wrong, or at least not helpful. I think the difficulty
arises because there are some things that ScriptingBridge is unable to do. I
could not find a way to create an outgoing message with Scriptin
Hi Cliff,
Did you manage to find the SBSendEmail sample code:
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#samplecode/SBSendEmail/Introduction/Intro.html
The sample they have looks a bit different from what you have. I haven't tried
it out myself, but their documentation seems quite thorough and wa
Hi,
I got something similar working for a plain text email but there are additional
requirements for HTML emails (which I needed), and I couldn't persuade SB to
accept html content. I should have made that clear in my previous note. If
anyone has an example for HTML email with SB it would be
Steve how did you get it working with the plain text. Below is the code I
think that is relevant in the SBS program.

Hi Cliff,
I guess the answer may be that I didn't get it working in Macruby, as I ended
up coding the relevant bit in Objective C! My recollection was that I used
Objective C so that I could write a framework that could be used from the
system ruby rather than just macruby. Maybe I also ended
Hi Cliff,
I've got something simple to work in Macruby. I think the problems I had were
because of html content.
Here's an example for plain text:
=
framework 'Foundation'
framework 'ScriptingBridge'
TITLE="title"
def make_message
app=SBApplication.applicationWithBundle
Perfect! How did you figure all of this out. Are there some documents that
explain when it is appropriate to use things like "classForScriptingClass"
etc...?

You need to use the ScriptingBridge documentation in Xcode - which means that
you need to spend some time understanding Objective C. I don't know it well
but enough to translate examples into Macruby.
I found Matt Aimonetti's book very helpful when I was starting off. It doesn't
say a lot abou
Yea putsing methods(true,true).sort is pretty useful. Below is what I have
compiled so far.

Re A) I think it should be easy to transfer the content from draft to outgoing
message. Don't both use MailRichText?
B) I think you'll be stuck with that problem. As far as I can see you can't
mutate an existing message into an outgoing message.

With Steve's help I think I have a working solution. Basically I'll run a
macruby script as a cron job which checks my drafts folder every 15 minutes.
time_range = ((Time.now - 150)..(Time.now + 300)
#I am not sure how much lag I can expect from the job. I would assume it
will do its work in only
