Thank you for your scripts. I already made the same modification to iPhoto. But isnt'it a little bit strange to have to do it by *hacking* these programs ... ? Shouldn't Apple respect their own guidelines (i.e. what is the point of defining a mail client in the Internet Preferences if they do not use it) ?

I'm replying to myself :)

After having posted the previous message, I realized that there is an explanation (beyond the "marketing" one) : the lack of a universal AppleScrip suite for mail clients. Each one is using its own suite for sending mails, attaching documents, etc. An interesting development would be to design an osax library that could seamlessly "talk" to any available mail client, while offering a common interface for all these programs that need to send mails... Any volunteer ? :)

And why do we not use one of the unix tools such as sendmail? Mails could be sent in the background without bothering the user about the chosen default mail application ...
