Mail With Attachment & Signature Problem

Scripting Forums AppleScript | Mac OS X
#1

Hello

I am trying to write a script that will take a selected file and create an email to the set of people with a set body of text as the content and one of my work signatures. Everything seems to be working fine except that the signature disappears when the attachment is added to the mail! Any ideas why? I have only just started learning Applescript so there will probably be some heinous errors!

Thanks

tell application "Finder"
	set sub_name to name of item 1 of (get selection)
	set attach_file to get selection as alias
end tell


tell application "Mail"
	set bour_mail to make new outgoing message with properties {visible:true, subject:sub_name}
	set art_font to "Verdana"
	set the_sig to signature "Example Sig"
	
	tell bour_mail
		make new to recipient with properties {address:"xxx.xxx.com, xxx.xxx.com"}
		make new cc recipient with properties {address:"xxx.xxx.com, xxx.xxx.com"}
		set the content to "hello etc etc"
		set font of content to art_font
		set size of content to (12)
		set message signature to the_sig
		make new attachment with properties {file name:attach_file}
		
	end tell
end tell

just try to remove these 3 lines

set art_font to “Verdana”

set font of content to art_font
set size of content to (12)

I think it’s confusing with your default font used for the signature.

Hello

Tried your suggestion and it worked the first time, but when I ran it a couple more times I had the same problem. Might just try again from scratch and do things a little differently. Thanks anyway!
