This is a follow up post for a message that you had posted earlier. Is there a place on officeformac.com that has a list of applescripts? I'm learning AS and trying to write them. You had mentioned in a post that they were posted under Entourage help but i didn't see any.

This is a follow up post for a message that you had posted earlier. Is there a
place on officeformac.com that has a list of applescripts? I'm learning AS and
trying to write them. You had mentioned in a post that they were posted under
Entourage help but i didn't see any.

I don't believe that Microsoft Mactopia posts any AppleScripts. If you are
trying to learn AppleScript, I can recommend this list.

List-Id: "Help and discussions for scripters developing scripts and
solutions in AppleScript." <applescript-users.lists.apple.com>

List-Subscribe: <http://lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/applescript-users>,
<mailto:[email protected]?subject=subscribe>

Scripts to use in Entourage can be found on Scriptbuilders
<http://scriptbuilders.net/> and on the Entourage Help Page --> Favorite
Scripts page:

<http://www.entourage.mvps.org/script/fav_scripts.html>

I link to several individual authors scripts pages on the fav script page.

If you need to discuss a problem with an actual script, you can post here or
on the YouTalk list (mailing list for the discussion of Entourage) The list
allows you to use HTML so you can post a script there without getting line
breaks.

I'm looking for an AppleScript that will allow you to automatically add the
sender to the BCC field when forwarding or replying to a message. I've got a
script that works for creating a new message with the sender in the BCC
field, but I'd like to have one for reply and forward as well. Is this
possible? Can anyone shed any light on this?

I'm confused, if you are replying to the sender, why would you want them in
the BCC line?

This is out of my experience level. Ask on the AppleScript list.

What I mean is that the sender who is replying will be BCC'd.

I will post my question to the AppleScript list.

Try this one.... Change the display name and address.


tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
set originalMessage to item 1 of (get current messages)
set theReply to reply to originalMessage
make new recipient at end of theReply with properties {recipient
type:bcc recipient, address:{display name:"YOUR NAME", address:"your
name@your email"}}
end tell
