   How to Print a Mail Message without printing the “To” field (or any others)
   Open Automator and then add the following actions:
   Get Selected Mail Items

   Combine Mail Messages

   Filter Paragraphs (do not contain)
   -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

   Filter Paragraphs (do not contain)
   Recipient

   Filter Paragraphs (do not contain)
   Repeat as required for any other information to exclude

   New TextEdit Document

   Run AppleScript
   (the box contents should be as below)
   on run {input, parameters}

   tell application “TextEdit”
   print document 1
   close document 1
   quit
   end tell

   return input
   end run

   Save as workflow (for editing etc.)
   Save as Plug-in for Script Menu e.g. as Print Mail Message

   In Mail select the message(s) to be printed and then, from the Scripts Menu, run the new Plug-in

   TextEdit will open with a new document containing the text ready for printing. If OK then print and click OK again to close TextEdit without saving the document, OR click cancel and do further editing of the mail(s)

   Can you add the facility for posters to add attachments? I could have posted the completed workflow/plug-in then.

   To schedule mail goto
   http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/email_chat/mailscripts.html
   and download the scripts.
   Apple states, amongst other things,
   Schedule Delivery (Mail): Allows you to send individual messages at predefined times (this script uses iCal for scheduling message delivery).

   Thanks for that Gazmaz … perfect!

   I’ve been working with a training application that integrates with various screen capture techniques and still John’s method works by far the best … more on the very cool training application soon!!

   Thanks again

   Rob,
   thanks for your suggestions….I guess you qualify as a geek more than I’d ever dream to.
   But, as I’m always trying to find the quickest route to a result I’ve actually found it quite easy to get a text selction into TextEdit by using the services menu option.
   I still believe there will be a less clicky option to do this trivial task.
   Hmmm, maybe there’s a way I can get it done with Quicksilver actions.
   We do love a challenge though.
