Hey All,
Another weird problem I am coming across. To make a long story short I have an Exchange email address and I want to schedule sending a recurring email to a specific email address for one day a week. I do not want to schedule an appointment, or calendar invite, just a simple plain email. I use Microsoft Outlook at work on a laptop that runs Windows which has this function, but that laptop is provided by my school (I'm a teacher) and has been returned for the summer, and the Outlook for my home Mac laptop of course does not have this function and I do not have access to another laptop that runs Windows. I have tried using Mail to see if it has a similar function, it does not, and the Mail add-on MailButler (which was once SendLater) does not provide this function as well. I have even gone as far as placing the following AppleScript:
tell application "Microsoft Outlook"
set OutgoingEmail to make new outgoing message with properties {subject:"TEST", content:"Happy Sunday, I was wondering if everything was ok. I just wanted to make sure that you are able to do what you need to do. Have a great day. Thanks, BS "}
make new recipientat OutgoingEmail with properties {email address:{name:"BS",
address:"DS@BS.com"}}
send message id (id of OutgoingEmail)
end tell
Into outlook as a work around, but I do not like the formatting of the message in the "content" due to there being no spaces or breaks in the greetings.
So, does anyone know of any good add-on for Mail or a better email software (paid or free) that works on Mac and allows me to create recurring emails?
