Forwarding email

C

Chris Sterns

I noticed when I want to forward multiple emails (to one person) Entourage
makes separate windows requiring me to type in the recipients name in each
window. The emails in this case all were received the same time and
appeared in consecutive order I just highlighted all three of them, clicked
forward and three windows appeared. Is there a procedure that will result
in just one window where all three emails will be forwarded?

Select all the emails, then choose Œforward as attachment¹ from the message
menu (entourage 20o4 only). For earlier versions there are scripts at
scriptbuilders to achieve the same thing.

That wouldn't make sense because they are in fact three emails. However,
there is certainly a way to create all three messages with the name of a
single recipient already filled in. And you don't have to open the
windows if you don't want to. Would that do? Just to give an example:

tell application "Microsoft Entourage" to forward (get current messages)
to "[email protected]" without opening window

That creates the forwards and puts them in Drafts, ready to send. A list
of the forwards is returned so you can just proceed to send them all in
one move if you wish. m.
