Mail Scripts

MacOS X's Mail and Address Book have large AppleScript dictionaries which allow almost every aspect of these programs to be scripted.

This is not an "I hate .mac" article but rather an explanation of the motivation and methods I used to provide myself with comparable services that are more usable for me. I publish it so that others may benefit from what I have learned.
