That's OK. Yes, it's an Entourage bug. But I've figured out a workaround - save the attachment in temporary items folder and use that file to make the attachments in the new messages.
I'll be posting v1.0.1 of Split Recipients X soon - it also restores the keyboard shortcut which got lost, makes the special BCC copies without flashing them open on the screen (no idea why I had that in), and uses Unicode so it works for non-English everything. Maybe I should call it 1.1? -- Paul Berkowitz > From: Allen Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: "Entourage:mac Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Thu, 17 Oct 2002 17:43:10 -0700 > To: Entourage mac Talk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: Error Message from Script Split recipients > > You're right, of course; not thinking straight.
