An AppleScript to batch-redirect email in Mail.app
Applescript does not cease to amaze me in its flexiblity, usefulness and unbelievable power even in the hands of the average user. Take for example this nice script, to batch redirect emails is really slick. I do have to mention one small, little caveat to this great script:
When you redirect your mail every resent mail will HONOR the BCC tags. This may not be a problem for most, but if you are like me and the thought of resending age old emails around the globe inadvertently, then maybe you should try something else. I have experiemented with the above script and not quite found a satisfactory solution to the problem. I added two lines:
But this takes me to the reason the solution is not quite satisfactory. It does not work if you reverse the order of the commands. If "delete cc" is first, I could not get the script to successfully remove the bcc tags. And even though there may be not be any CC tags, without this command the script wouldn't work. I think maybe a BCC tag is considered the same as a cc tag. So does the first swipe just remove the "B" and the second the "CC"? If anyone knows why it would be instructive. Here is my altered script in full:
I removed the Dialog box that asked if it's OK to send. Refer to the first script to put it back in. Or just copy and paste the two lines from this script and put it in your own.
