Emacs doesn't look at ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist, but Mac OS X does. You have to log out and then log back in in order for your changes to this file to take affect -- they're loaded at when you login.

I'm thinking that there might be somewhere in /etc that I might try, but I've been frying other fish.Perhaps it doesn't look because I've been launching emacs from the dock. At some point, I'll look further into it, but right now my eye is turned to the majordomo port and to getting fetchmail/sendmail/procmail to work with Eudora.
#!/bin/sh
/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs "$@"
That should absolutely work. But then, if you can put it in .emacs, then it
will work on any Emacs on any platform, so that might be a better, more
generalized solution.
It also won't be propagated to other gui applications that don't need it, so it might be cleaner.
