LC, applescript and mail.app

[zryip theSlug]

Hi Yves,

According to the Mail applescript's dictionary, the content property only
accepts RTF content.

2 ways for doing what you want:

1. RTF

put the rtfText of fld "test" to tVar
tell application "Mail"
        set newMessage to (make new outgoing message at end of outgoing
messages with properties {subject:xx, content:tVar})
end tell

2. Or with applescript, using the HTML content property of the outgoing
message
set the htmlText of fld "test" to tVar
tell application "Mail"
        set newMessage to (make new outgoing message at end of outgoing
messages with properties {subject:xx, html content:tVar})
end tell


Best Regards,
