Drag-n-Drop-Email-as v 0.5
Copyright ©1996 Joseph Santaniello. All Rights Reserved.
What it does:
This Applescript sends e-mail messages to, and gets e-mail messages from your mail server.
The script sends via e-mail the contents of text files dropped on it's Icon.
The first line of a text file you wish to send as e-mail must be the recipients
complete e-mail address followed by a return. The address will not be seen on
the recieved message. Multiple text files may be dropped on it, but not folders.
When it is run by double clicking, it checks to see if there is any mail waiting for you.
You are then informed of how many messages are waiting and asked whether to get them
or not. If you elect to get your mail the script creates a folder called "AppleScript Inbox"
on your Desktop, if one does not exist already. If one does, it just uses that one. It then
retrieves your messages, saving them as text files in the "AppleScript Inbox" folder using
names like "Message #1 12h22m45s" , "Message #2 12h22m51s", etc. Once messages
are retrieved from the server, they are deleted.
It If a PPP connection is not in place when the script runs, it will open a connection and
then close it when it is finished with whatever function is being used. If there is already
a PPP connection in place when the Script runs, when finished it will leave the PPP connection
as if found it.
This Script will use Text-to-Speech to augment it's interface, if available.
This version supports mail servers with whatever name you enter during configuration,
handles errors better, and determines if the necessary Scripting Additions are installed.
What it requires:
This script as yet has only been tested on with System 7.5.3 and FreePPP 2.5.
It does not work properly with OpenTransport. AppleScript v1.0 or later, Drag and Drop,
Scriptable finder, and the following Scripting Additions are required:
MacPPP Control OSAX found in UMich mirrors at /util/comm/macpppcontrol1.4.sit.hqx
TCP/IP Scripting Additions OSAX found in UMich mirrors at /util/script/tcpipscriptingadd1.12.cpt.hqx
The following Scripting Addition is not required, but adds functionality to the script if
Text-to-Speech is installed:
Speech OSAX found in Info-Mac mirrors at /cfg/speech-as.hqx
Yeah, and?
This Script is free, however you are required send me e-mail with your comments.
This Script may be included in CD-ROM collections if this documentation is included,
and if possible I am given a copy. This Script is warranted to do nothing. If it doesn't
do nothing you can have your money back. Or maybe I can have your money back...?
