Is there a way to get Entourage to automatically BCC e-mails as they
are sent? It would save me a lot of typing!

Thanks

1- Download Jon's Commands from
http://osaxen.com/files/jonscommandsx3.0d3.html

2- After unstuffit the file, Move the "Jon¹s Commands.osax" file in the
"Library/ScriptingAdditions" folder

3- Download "Add BCC or CC E 1.1" script from
<http://scriptbuilders.net/files/addbccorccentourage1.1.html>

4- After decompression, move the "Add BCC or CC E1.1" file in the
"Users/account/Documents/Microsoft Users Data/Entourage Script Menu Items"
folder

5- Launch Entourage

6- Open a new mail to send

7- Execute once "Add BCC or CC E 1.1" script from Script menu (1st time). Go
in the the "script" menu on the right of "Help" menu. Choose "Add BCC or CC
E 1.1"

8- write email address in CC or BCC recipient (Cci in french)

9- Execute "Add BCC or CC E 1.1" script again (2nd time) (see line #7)

Close mail to send window without saving. That's all.

The BCC is memorized by the script. You don't have to execute script again
except if you want to modify the BCC address. Each time the user send a
mail, a copy is sent to the BCC without to put an address in the BCC
recipient. It's automatic and transparent. If the user doesn't know the
script, he or she sees nothing. You don't have to repeat the operation
again.

Hi,

I have followed these instructions but Add bcc does not work
automatically. The script works but it does not seem to memorize the
bcc address and/or does not add it automatically to messages when
composed. In other words, it is not silently adding the bcc
automatically to messages to be sent.

I'm running Entourage 2004 (11.3.6) on an IMac G5 1.83 Ghz, 1 GB SDRAM
running Mac OS X Leopard (10.5.1). I am using a PoP email account.

Is there something I can do to make this work automatically?

Thank you and Best Regards

Luc

The best option is to contact the script author when you are having
problems. Paul Berkowitz is usually good about responding to requests for
help.

Might I suggest you get more memory. 1 GB is barely enough to get by. If you
up your memory to 2GB it will be like getting a new computer. It will fit
perfectly into your Christmas stocking. :)

Thanks for your reply Diana.

Actually, the IMac G5 20" is the "Kitchen" Computer in our house. I
use a 17" MacBook Pro - 2.33 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo - 2 GB SDRAM with a
30" Apple Cinema Display. It's amazing how well our IMac G5 has been
working ever since we purchased it in November 2004. This baby has
never crashed. It was our first Mac and that's why we converted all
our PC's to Mac's thereafter. But, it wouldn't be a bad idea to add 1
more GB of memory to it...

Best Regards and a Happy Holiday Season.

Problem solved.

We simply switched the mail application on the IMac G5 from Entourage
to Apple Mail 3.1. There are easy instructions to enter in terminal
that add automatic bcc to Mail without hassle. Moreover, it's very
easy with Mail 3.1 to import Entourage's mailboxes and everything
else.

Best Regards.
