Is there a way to have all outgoing mail automatically Bcc-ed to a
given fixed e-mail address? Entourage 2004 11.2.1.

Thanks for any help,

Save this script in Script Editor, saving to ~/Documents/Microsoft User
Data/Entourage Script Menu Items/ folder. Name it "Add BCC \omB" to give it
a keyboard shortcut of option-cmd-B. (Check "About the Script Menu" in the
Help for instructions on setting a different shortcut.) And/or you can make
a schedule in Tools/Schedules to Run AppleScript (this script) to run every
1 minute. That will take care of it automatically as long as it takes you a
minute (on average 0 seconds) to write an email. Change the BCC name and
address as desired.



tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
activate
set myBCC to "\"Stein Arild Strømme\" <[email protected]>"
try
set theWindow to window 1
on error
return
end try
if class of theWindow is draft window then
set bccRecips to (BCC recipients of theWindow)
if bccRecips does not contain myBCC then
if bccRecips ‚ "" then set bccRecips to bccRecips & ", "
set BCC recipients of theWindow to bccRecips & myBCC
end if
end if
end tell
