    Using PC Outlook in vmware with "email"

    in Discussion & Help

    Posted · Edited by Rich_S

    Hi All,

     

    very new to Alfred and already loving it.

     

    I am an "ex" PC user and have moved to Mac, but never quite managed to get rid of the liking for some programs so run vmware on my mac to allow me to use certain PC software of which MS Outlook is one.

     

    Vmware is set in Mac to use Outlook when ever there is a call to mailto and wondered how I might  tweak Alfred to take me there too...

     

    I tried creating this workflow;

    tell application "System Events" to open location "mailto:"
    activate
        make new outgoing message
    end tell
     
    but nothing happening....

     

    I am sure it's an absolute stretch to look at Outlook's contact list from within Alfred but if someone has been playing about with the whole vmware thing I would be very interested to know.

     

    many thanks in advance,

     

    R.
