I am fighting a bit with ApppleScript and message / thread views in Lion. AppleScript does not seem to support this type of window completely. If somebody with mountain lion could check the "contains" area of apple script or else run a very specific 1 line AppleScript for me then I could determi

I guess ultimately, what I'd like: I enter on a thread to open it up. I have the option to hit right-option 1 reads sender, right-option2 reads recipients, right-option3 reads CC, and so on. If it was possible, it would be cool to know which message I'm in the thread. Say there is 6 messages i

Hello, If this is important to your workflow, I could create something fairly quickly. 1. Create a "Activity" group for mail. 2. Create AppleScript command to either move VO cursor or speak specific information. 3. Use keyboard commander to link scripts to keys. To start open up mail then go

Vo J will jump you between the messages table and message body in Mail, thus allowing you to very quickly navigate to the table where that information is stored. tab and Shift Tab, with VO navigation, will also do the same thing. And, no, I don't think hot spots or landmarks stick in other tha
