Jim,
you can do it, but to have a macintosh just for email is a little subusing the machine: :-)
you don't need applescript or shell, I don't think one can disable force quit, but at least for the email part you can check Shao Shan libSMTP and libEmail stacks.
Cheers andre

Hi,
I want to create an email kiosk application for my grandmother (yes, one shot in a million, but it won't cost me anything other than programming time..), using a combination of RunRev, shell scripting, and maybe a little Cocoa to do things like disable force quit. Is this a good idea (to do it in RunRev), considering that this *has* to be rock-solid (I'm planning a scheduled reboot about once every 4 days, the rest of the time time machine just waking up and going back to sleep), or should I just consider something like Cocoa or Applescript Studio?
