Product Description:

Drop 'n Mail (for Entourage X or Apple Mail) allows you to mail attachments from anywhere in the Finder. Just drop a file, folder, or multiple files on the script, enter your email addresses (to: cc:, bcc:), subject (optionally keeps file's name in there), a message, and then have your email program compose a new message with all of the elements ready for sending now or later. You can also use the optional Contextual menu with Drop 'n Mail. If you double-click on the script, it will ask you to select a file for attaching or email an open browser window (Safari or Explorer). Encoding options are dependent on which script you use.

What's new in this version:

You can now email a web page of the open Browser WIndow (Safari or Explorer) using the Entourage script. Mail does not currently support HTML emails.
Cleaned up the code to better handle most situations, i.e., If you don't include an email address, it will put your mail in your drafts folder automatically.
New Contextual Menu installer (Will install the script and the CM into the appropriate folders).
Significant code enhancements and clearer dialog boxes.

CM to work correctly, you have to put the Drop 'n Mail script for either Entourage or Mail (NOT BOTH) into your ~/Library/Scripts folder (this is your Home directory). You can do this before or after you run the Install DropnMailCM script (which will put the actual CM into your Contextual Menu Items folder). After that, it will ask you to log out or restart the Finder (logging out is the best choice). Hope this helps. Email me if you are still having difficulties. Thanks.
