Problem with email script

I am using an email script to have FMP 6 send an email via Microsoft Entourage.

In my signature in Microsoft Entourage I have a pic. However if I use the script Microsoft Entourage produces an email without my picture in the signature.

Any tips?

Second problem is that it puts the new email in the drafts folder; I would like it to open the email and leave the new mail open. Any tricks for this?

Thanks

This one's straight from the FMP6 help system

"Select Perform without dialog to put the composed email message in the email application's outbox, ready to be sent. If this option is not selected, the composed message is left open in the email application so it can be reviewed. In Microsoft Outlook Express 5 or Microsoft Entourage on the Macintosh operating system, the new message is left in the Drafts folder."

Notice it is very specific about the behaviour difference with Outlook or Entourage for Mac OS X.

Switch mail application to Apple Mail for the result you need.

Not sure about the picture problem.

can you not auto add the signature to the bottom of the entourage message in entourage prefs itself? ... and make sure you specift all new messages to include it and of course be html

sometimes i create a message with the following link ... never been able to get carriage returns in the body though...

mailto:[email protected]?Subject=test&body=type%20some%20text%20here

I have not tried the new url resolving function in 8.5 though .. could be worth a shot.
