Help with send Applescript command in Outlook 2011

[Bobby Kansara]

Hey all,

The following allows me to send mails, please let me know if this is not working for you:


set tmp to make new outgoing message with properties {subject:"subject", content:"body"}
make new recipient at tmp with properties {email address:{name:"Name", address:"email at somewhere.com"}}
send tmp


Thanks,

Of course I see now that someone else has also posted this bug.  What a bummer, if I can't automatically send emails then Office for Mac 2011 is useless to me.
